What police say happened in the shooting of Jayland Walker
City and police officials spoke at a news conference Sunday and released 13 police body camera videos of the events leading up to Walker's shooting.
Walker was unarmed at the time of his death, Akron Police Chief Stephen Mylett told reporters.
A gun was found in Walker's vehicle after the shooting, police said, and officers said Walker fired a gun from his vehicle during the pursuit.
Narrated video released by police says that about 40 seconds into the pursuit, "a sound consistent with a gunshot can be heard" on body camera footage, with officers telling dispatch that a shot from Walker's vehicle.
Police also showed still images taken from traffic cameras showing "a flash of light" - perhaps a flash - along the driver's side of the car.
"That changes the whole nature" of the incident, Mylett said, turning a "routine traffic stop" into a "public safety issue."
After several minutes, body camera video shows Walker's vehicle slowing down and he got out of the vehicle and ran.
Several police officers got out of their patrol cars and gave chase, and officers deployed Tasers in an effort to stop him, police said, but were unsuccessful.
Moments later, when police said Walker stopped and turned toward officers, they opened fire, killing him.
Eight police officers were "directly involved" in the shooting, Mylett said Sunday, and all have been placed on paid administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation.
The Walker family's attorney said Tuesday that he was sick after viewing the body camera footage.
"It's devastating to see a young life taken away in this rabid and crazy way," Bobby diCello told CNN.
"He was unarmed and I'm going to echo exactly what the chief (of police) said: Every single one of those bullets, and there were over 90 of them, must be accounted for and must be shown to be significant."

Protests after the shooting
There were protests over Walker's killing on Sunday that began peacefully but turned violent as night fell, Akron Mayor Dan Horrigan said.
He said there was "significant property damage in downtown Akron" and police said they arrested about 50 people after protesters failed to disperse.
Walker's family had called for the protests to be peaceful to honor his memory.
Robert Dejournett, a relative of Walker and a local pastor, said the 25-year-old was a fun-loving, prankster who was adored by all.
"We are God-fearing people who believe in God and we want to exemplify that even in this process," Dejournett told CNN, "we don't want riots or anything like that."
"Personally, I want to scream and get mad," the pastor said, "but what's that going to do?"
Horrigan instituted a nightly curfew Monday and Tuesday in downtown Akron to prevent further violence.
He plans to lift the curfew on Wednesday morning.
"Citizens have a right to make their voices heard, and I fully support that," the mayor said in a statement on the city's website.
"In an effort to support all who are peacefully protesting, I plan to lift the curfew in our downtown area beginning tomorrow. As always, public safety remains our top priority and I urge our community to report any instances or threat of violence or destruction so a small group of rioters won't cause more damage to our city and small businesses."
