Child Falls From Car as Parents Flee Shocking Police Bodycam!
CHILD FALLS FROM CAR AS FATHER ATTEMPTS TO FLEE POLICE IN NORTH LAS VEGAS, NV
Shocking Police Bodycam Child Falls From Car as Parents Flee – On July 20, 2025, at approximately 1:55 p.m., North Las Vegas police responded to multiple calls regarding a suspicious black Honda Accord parked at the Maverik gas station. The vehicle contained two adults, three children, and a family dog. Witnesses reported that the occupants may be under the influence, and that one adult appeared
passed out—prompting immediate police attention. When officers approached, they found 31‑year‑old Auftan Green standing outside the driver’s door. Suddenly, Green re-entered the vehicle and attempted to flee. In the chaos, one of the children fell from the moving car and sustained minor injuries. The scene was captured in vivid detail on body-worn cameras, showing an officer rushing to gather the fallen child to safety.
As officers intervened, 37‑year‑old Kristal Leavitt—the mother—initially exited the vehicle to assist the child, only to turn and attempt to re-enter the fleeing car. Officers detained her before she could escape further, showcasing both human confusion and calculated flight responses under pressure.
Green then circled back into the gas station lot at a high rate of speed and began driving toward officers, Leavitt, and the child. One officer narrowly avoided being struck. Another officer, standing directly in the vehicle’s path, discharged five rounds, striking the vehicle and Green in the torso.
EXPLOSIVE DRIVING, DEADLY DECISIONS, AND RAW BODYCAM FOOTAGE
Shocking Police Bodycam Child Falls From Car as Parents Flee – Despite suffering multiple gunshot wounds, Green continued driving—striking the same officer in the leg—before crashing into a median on East Tropical Parkway. The camera footage showcases the chaotic milliseconds when an officer is placed directly in harm’s way while public safety is at risk.
Inside the vehicle, responding officers discovered heroin, methamphetamine, and a firearm—amply illustrating the dangerous and criminal context of the incident. None of the adults had legal custody of the children, elevating the severity of their actions. The case becomes one not only of attempted violence against law enforcement, but also of endangering minors.
All three children were evaluated at a local hospital before Child Protective Services assumed custody. No confirmation was made publicly about whether the children have since been reunited with their maternal relative, who was identified as their legal guardian.
Green faces serious charges, including two counts of attempted murder with a deadly weapon, three counts of child abuse or neglect, and additional charges remain pending. Leavitt was booked for five counts of child abuse or neglect. Both individuals possessed significant criminal histories involving drugs, weapons, and violence.
LEGAL, SOCIAL & LAW ENFORCEMENT IMPLICATIONS
Shocking Police Bodycam Child Falls From Car as Parents Flee – The incident ignited fierce discussions regarding law enforcement response times, tactics during child endangerment scenarios, and the ethics of firing at fleeing vehicles. The officer’s decision to shoot was made in a rapidly evolving situation where lethal force was used to prevent possible fatal injury to innocent parties.
Critics speculate whether the fleeing driver could have been disabled without gunfire; supporters argue that, given the gun, drugs, and presence of children, the officer’s action was necessary to protect public safety. The dual threat—both weapon and high-speed vehicle—made this a uniquely dangerous scenario.
Legally, the outcome could hinge on whether the use of force is justified under executive danger to human life statutes. Prosecutors must weigh intent, threat level, and the officer’s opportunity to control the scene without lethal force. Given Green’s return attack, many would argue that justification is solid.
Moreover, the case spotlights the broader societal issue of parental neglect and substance abuse—and specifically, how law enforcement intersects with vulnerable families. Removing custody from both adults was mandatory, underscoring the systemic failures that allowed children to be placed in such danger.
