MONROE COUNTY, Ind. -- The Monroe County Sheriff's Office has released officer body came footage from a deadly officer-involved shooting earlier this month. 

The incident occurred outside a mobile home on Tower Road about four miles from Bloomington on August 7. The deputies were at the residence to serve a warrant. 

Sheriff Brad Swain says Daniel Boyer, 24, came out of the mobile home with a handgun and pointed it at two deputies. The deputies returned fire, striking Boyer multiple times.

Body cam video released from the incident shows the two deputies, identified as Don Teague and Deandre Moxley, yelling at the man to stop multiple times before firing their weapons.

The rest of the video, which we have chosen not to share at this time, shows the officers rushing to Boyer after he fell to the ground. 

"I know you screwed up, but just stay with us, okay? Stay awake," one of the officers can be heard saying on the video. 

Those officers try to get Boyer to respond while they keep watch on the mobile home, where they believe another man ran. 

After a few moments, the officers pick Boyer up and carry him out of the wooded area and to their cruisers on the road to wait for an ambulance. During the several minutes that pass, officers can be heard trying to keep Boyer's attention and talking about how weak his pulse is. 

"Breathe. In and out in and out," one of the officers says. 

Boyer sustained four gunshot wounds, according to the Monroe County Coroner -- one to his right index finger, two to his left thigh and a superficial wound to his lower right back.
