'They’re moving so f------ slow': Maryland releases footage from Jordan McNair's final football practice

As an ambulance snaked its way through the University of Maryland’s campus, a police officer grew exasperated.

“They’re moving so f------ slow,” the policewoman said, “it’s pissing me off.”

The paramedics were coming for Jordan McNair, the 19-year-old offensive lineman who fell ill during football practice in College Park and ultimately died of heatstroke. Roughly 8 ½ minutes passed between the 911 call and the ambulance’s arrival at the Gossett Football Team House.

The body camera footage depicting the officers’ frustration was part of a trove of videos released by the university on Thursday in response to a Baltimore Sun public information act request.
