A metro man's chilling 911 call was released on Wednesday by the Oklahoma City police. The suspect went on to fire shots at two officers who responded to his call.

Police released the officers’ body camera video of the shootout with Twaun Jackson. 

The Oklahoma County district attorney has since charged 22-year-old Jackson with two counts of shooting with intent to kill.

Jackson called 911 in the early morning hours of November 23.

911 Dispatch: “What’s going on?”

Jackson: “Try to stop me from killing everybody in here.”

911 Dispatch: “What’s going on?”

Jackson: “Just do what I said.”

911 Dispatch: “What’s your name?”

Jackson: “Don’t matter, just do what I said, bring police over here.”

After Jackson made the call, he waited for officers to arrive at his southwest Oklahoma City home.

Police said he was waiting inside the garage with a gun. The two officers first on the scene saw the gun and ran for cover.

The shootout started after Jackson walked into the street and fired several times into the air, ignoring the officers' commands to drop his weapon.

Officers: “Drop it! Drop it! Drop it! Drop the gun!”

Meanwhile, frightened neighbors told News 9 later in the day that the shooting was too close for comfort.

“It happened right outside my children’s window,” said Christy, a neighbor. “So, we couldn’t rest, it was uncomfortable for sure.”

The officers were not injured, but one of their patrol cars took a bullet. Jackson fell to the ground after he was shot in the leg.

Jackson: “Get off me! Get off me! No, no, no, no, no.”

He struggled with officers and paramedics as they tried to give him first aid. Jackson was taken to the hospital and later booked into the Oklahoma County Detention Center.

Police officials said the two officers involved in the shooting are still on paid administrative leave.
