One officer in the video can be heard yelling, “Open the door!” He then orders the suspect to “Step out with both hands up. Do not move your hands! Step away, turn away from me,” before the suspect is cuffed.
Investigators reported that the headrests on the driver and passenger sides of the victims’ vehicle were riddled with bullet holes, according to FOX5.

Montgomery, who was charged with two counts of aggravated assault, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, and felony possession of a controlled substance, is currently being held without bond in the Gwinnet County Adult Detention Center, the outlet reported.
