Body camera video released by the NYPD on Thursday shows dramatic new footage of the moment a man opened fire on a group of officers inside a Brooklyn apartment building last month.

The footage — part of which was released in the days after the March 7 shooting — shows several angles of a shoot-out between police and Abdur Rashid Ridhwaan, who opened fire toward four officers from the top of a Hawthorne Street apartment stairwell, according to police.

The cops had been called to the building after Ridhwaan shot his roommate in the legs, police said.

"I think he's having a nervous breakdown," the roommate's girlfriend told a 911 call dispatcher. "He's talking to himself."

Cops fired 23 shots during the encounter at Ridhwaan, who retreated back into his apartment without being hit. Police later called hostage negotiators to get Ridhwaan and his roommate out of the apartment, police said.

Ridhwaan was charged with attempted murder of a police officer, attempted murder, criminal possession of a weapon and unlawful imprisonment.

His roommate and all four officers were treated at the hospital. Two of the officers had been hit during the gunfire, one in his leg and another in his bullet-proof vest and body camera, according to police.

Police officials would later say the officers survived only "by the grace of God."

The shoot-out is the second police-involved shooting on Hawthorne Street this year, and at least the fifth in Brooklyn in the last several months.
