Body-camera video shows Miami-Dade police director in handcuffs

A Tampa Police Department body camera video released to the Miami Herald shows Tampa officers place Miami-Dade Police Director Alfredo “Freddy” Ramirez in handcuffs and question him outside his Tampa hotel room on July 23. Roughly a dozen Tampa officers responded to a report that Ramirez had threatened his own life during an argument with his wife outside the hotel where they were attending a law enforcement convention. After Ramirez answered their questions and said he had no plans to harm himself, police released him and left. Hours later, Ramirez shot and wounded himself on Interstate 75 in Hillsborough County while driving home to Miami with his wife, Jody.
