A Southern California man accused of shooting and killing a homeless man he woke up for blocking a sidewalk captured the shooting on video, according to the Orange County district attorney. The sleeping man awoke and began yelling at Elliot to get away from him, the release said. The district attorney’s office said Elliott had an active concealed carry permit from the Orange County Sheriff’s Department when the shooting happened. Authorities said in the release that a video taken by Elliot shows Avalos standing up and throwing a shoe at Elliot, who then ducks to avoid the shoe. Seconds later, according to the release, the video shows Elliot shooting Avalos three times.
