Atlanta Police say suspect George Delmar, who has been arrested 31 previous times, was taken into custody after leaping out of a window.
Police in Atlanta have released bodycam video showing a burglary suspect jumping out of a second-story window after police deployed Tasers during a foot chase.
The incident involving 49-year-old George Delmar, whom police say has been arrested 31 previous times, happened on Feb. 11 in the southern part of the city.
Footage begins with police opening an apartment door and shouting at a man to "put your hands up!"
The sound of glass could then be heard shattering as the officer makes his way to the rear of the apartment.
