Bodycam video of Richard Rotter's arrest was shown in court Wednesday as the murder trial continues for the death of Everett police officer Dan Rocha. FOX13

Testimony focused around Rotter's arrest following the deadly shooting and his reckless getaway attempt that ended in a crash.

"He had just shot my coworker," said Detective Devin Hackett. "My big thing is that he is still armed, and if he’s still armed he still presents a threat. Even if he’s unarmed he still presents a potential threat to me, to Lt. Collings, to the public that he just caused a crash, and I’m watching his behavior very closely because if he attempts to access a firearm in any way I made up my mind to shoot him."Everett Police Officer Dan Rocha.
