AURORA, Colo. â The man who was pistol-whipped and choked by a now-former Aurora Police Department officer said Tuesday he believed he would be shot during the encounter that led to criminal charges for two of the officers involved.
Kyle Vinson sat in his attorney's office, back straight but eyes wet with what appeared to be tears.
"I don't want to re-watch the video," Vinson said.
Last week, body camera video released by the Aurora Police Department showed Officer John Haubert pistol-whipping and choking Vinson as he tried to arrest him on July 23 on South Parker Road following a report of trespassing.
