A nurse and a security guard are heard warning the witness that filming is illegal because it "violates patient confidentiality." WATCH | A video recorded by a witness shows part of the altercation:Cell phone video captured by a witness shows part of the altercation between two Durham police officers and Livingston Jeffers. It shows a nurse following the couple outside, where she is quickly joined by a security guard, a doctor and then the Durham officers who were parked at the nearby ambulance bay on an unrelated call. One of the Durham officers was wearing an active body cam at the time, as part of a pilot project, and the audio apparently captures him warning his partner about the attempt to take his weapon. Livingston and Pamelia Jeffers are suing Durham Regional Police and Lakeridge Health Ajax Pickering Hospital after a violent altercation with two police officers outside the hospital in October 2018.
