SAN ANTONIO – After nearly five months of waiting, the family of Darrell Zemault Sr. said bodycam footage of his death did not provide them with the answers they sought. AdZemault’s family said officials only allowed them to view two videos from two angles that were only roughly three minutes long. “Our family was left with more questions than answers,” the family said in a statement on Sunday. “The limited, controlled footage that was presented left the family with many questions around the entire incident,” according to the statement. “The San Antonio Police Department continues to withhold vital information from our family and the public.

SAN ANTONIO – After what she said was a “frustrating and dehumanizing” effort to view police body camera video of her godfather was shot to death by police, Celeste Brown said Monday that Darrell Zemault’s daughter will be allowed to view the video. ”It’s been an extremely frustrating process,” Brown said. Officers said that when Zemault tried to take a gun from one of the officers, another officer shot him in the back. Brown said that it’s taken nearly five months to get permission from city officials to see police body cam video. Ad”Seeing the video doesn’t mean we get closure and we’re done here,” Brown said.

The detective told the uniformed officers to handcuff Zemault, officials said. Officials say Zemault grabbed a can of wood stain and moved away from the officers and ignored their commands. One of the uniformed officers then struck Zemault with a baton but was also unsuccessful in subduing him. Officials say a struggle for the gun ensued after a detective noticed Zemault had the weapon. Another detective feared Zemault would shoot, and the detective fired one round into Zemault’s back, SAPD says.

SAN ANTONIO – A man shot and killed by a San Antonio police officer during an alleged struggle outside his West Side home was identified by his family. Three plain-clothed officers and two in uniform went to the home to serve two domestic violence arrest warrants on him, San Antonio Police Chief McManus said at a press conference. The officers were wrestling when Zemault managed to grab the officer’s service weapon, and that’s when another officer shot him, McManus said. The charges against Zemault were called into question by his daughter, Susie Zemault, who doubted the domestic violence allegations reported by her father’s girlfriend. Susie Zemault said her father had been with her mother for 30 years and had no prior history of domestic violence.
