Bodycam video showed Hall quickly turn on his lights before running out of his patrol vehicle, at which point the vehicle speeds off, striking him.

Hall then called for backup, at which point several sheriff's office personnel and Tampa Police Department officers responded.

"He ran over me," Hall can be heard saying in the video. "I need EMS. My leg's broken."
