There is no indication that race was a factor in the shooting of Siderio, who was white. Krasner called the entire foot chase “tactically unsound” and said the video was “disturbing and very difficult to watch.” “It is certain that (Siderio) had stopped running and he was possibly surrendering … and he was essentially facedown on the sidewalk,” Krasner said, saying the youth was in a pushup position looking back toward the officer when he was shot. According to grand jury documents, prosecutors created a composite video from two cameras, one that recorded clear visuals of the foot chase and another that recorded a different visual angle but caught sound. Krasner said much of the evidence was based on the video, which has not been publicly released.
