In response to CBS13's ongoing investigation into April's deadly Mahany park shooting in Roseville, the California Highway Patrol on Monday released never-before-seen cell phone, helicopter, and drone footage from that day. Out of respect for the victims and their families, CBS Sacramento is choosing not to publish any images of the victims from that day. For nine months, the CHP claimed this video didn't exist.

The video appears to show Abril using Patty MacEagan as a human shield and shooting her in the arm, before surrendering.
