Video Shows Marine Drive Through Gate Before Deputy Killed Him

Capistrano Unified School District releases a 30-minute tape from the parking lot near where Marine Sgt. Manuel Loggins was shot by a sheriff's deputy.

A surveillance video from the San Clemente High School parking lot where a deputy sheriff shot and killed Marine Sgt. Manuel Loggins shows Loggins driving through a gate, deputies milling about and Loggins being carried off in a stretcher.

The video does little to answer questions still swirling around the controversial shooting; it does not show Loggins being shot or include his daughters, who were in the back seat of Loggins' SUV when he was killed.

The video has no audio.
