The unbelievable bodycam footage shows Metro officers, William Umana, 37, and Paul Solomon, 46, engaged in a high-speed chase as one of the officers shoots at the suspect’s vehicle through the window of his police cruiser.
The pursuit ends in a crash outside an elementary school.

Miranda was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash from a gunshot wound.
Police were called to the scene of an attempted murder on July 11, 2018. The victim was shot multiple times. When officers arrived the suspects fled the scene in a SUV. That led to a long police chase. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department says the suspects fired at them 34 times with bullets hitting multiple vehicles. source
