This is the moment a violent drug dealer jumped out of his truck and shot a father-of-three cop dead during a routine traffic stop before dying in a hail of bullets after a 40-mile chase.
Sickening footage shows violent criminal Omar Felix Cueva, 39, stepping out of the driver’s side of his Chevrolet pick-up truck with an AR-15-style rifle before firing one shot at New Mexico officer Darrian Jarrott over the rear of the vehicle.
Jarrott, 28, fell to the ground, at which point Cueva walked over to him and shot him several more times, including once point-blank in the head. He then took off in his truck on a 40-mile police chase that saw him die in a hail of bullets.
Seconds before the officer had asked Cueva – who was on his way to a drug deal – to hand over his rifle, which appears to have sparked his murderous act.
Jarrott, a father of three small children whose partner was pregnant at the time of his death, says: ‘Yeah, mind if I open the door? Or if you want to roll down the window more.’
In a brief conversation lasting around three minutes, the officer asks if Cueva had insurance, to which he replies ‘yes’, and confirms his name, before asking the criminal to come over to his patrol car so he could run checks.
Cueva opens his door, at which point Jarrott notices his rifle and asked, ‘You have a firearm on you, do you mind if I take that off you, for my own safety?’
The officer then says, ‘Let’s go to my vehicle OK’, at which point Cueva gets out from the driver’s seat holding the rifle – which Jarrott is unable to see because his view is blocked by the pick-up.
As both men slowly walk parallel with each other towards the patrol car, Cueva suddenly draws the rifle, with Jarrott shouting ‘oh s***’ before being hit.
The criminal then shoots him several more times off the camera and slowly pulls away, leaving the officer’s dead body by the side of the road.
