The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office released video on Wednesday showing the moments that led to the fatal shooting of a man armed with a gun, who police said kicked in the doors of four homes in the Holiday Hill neighborhood earlier this month.
On May 4, officers responded to the reports of multiple armed burglaries on Rigel Road off Century 21 Drive.
They said that starting around 11:15 p.m., a man identified as 33-year-old Brandon Kaphers had kicked in the doors of four occupied homes while carrying a handgun.
Surveillance camera footage shared by JSO showed Kaphers walking up to the front door of a home with a gun in his hand. He appeared to ring the doorbell before kicking in the door and entering the home.
You can hear a woman say, “What the [expletive] was that?”
Not even a minute later, he walks out of the home, saying, “Man, y’all playing with me.”
“Yo, what the ****,” the woman can be heard saying after Kaphers walked out of the home.
According to police, Kaphers kicked in the front door of another home, went upstairs and pointed a gun at a resident in her bedroom. She immediately called 911.
Kaphers then went to kick in the front doors of two other homes.
In another video, officers could be seen pulling up to the neighborhood as Kaphers, who was still armed, was walking across the driveway of some homes.
A woman then pointed him out to the police. When he approached the police, the video showed him pointing the gun at them twice before officers fired multiple times.
Kaphers was taken to the hospital, where he died from his injuries.
JSO said Kaphers had a criminal history that included aggravated assault with a weapon, false imprisonment of a minor, and other charges.
