  Shocking and graphic footage has been released showing police shooting a man dead after he pulls a BB gun on them outside a Texas Applebee's.

  
  
  

  Officer body cameras show James Bushey, 47, get riddled with bullets by two officers as he draws a life-like handgun from his shorts after being marched out of the family restaurant in the town of Palestine.

  
  
  

  The entire encounter lasts less than two minutes, and Bushey goes from a seemingly compliant suspect to being dead on the ground in little more than ten seconds.

  
  
  

  Bushey, who was drunk, is filmed pulling out the gun in his right hand then spinning round after reaching into his shorts while officer Kaylynn Griffin was in front of him.

  But moments after his short-lived escape attempt began, sergeant Gabriel Green grabs him then pushes him away.

  
  
  

  He immediately draws his weapon and unloads at least eight rounds into Bushey, who drops lifeless to the ground.

  
  
  

  Griffin also fires several rounds at Bushey, then calls for assistance after he hits the floor.

  
  
  

  A police toxicology report later showed that Bushey had a large amount of alcohol in his system - some 19 times the legal driving limit. 

  
  
  

  The footage, dated May 31, begins with Green confronting Bushey in the bathroom of the Applebee's, where he had reportedly run after stealing beer from a nearby Walmart.
