Jury hears policeman David Rixon's fatal shot Senior Constable David Rixon / Pic: Northern Daily Leader. THE family of slain policeman David Rixon sobbed in court yesterday as a recording of the last moments of his life was played to a jury. A flurry of gunshots - followed by a scream and then silence - were heard after the highway patrol officer pulled over a driver for a random breath test on the quiet streets of Tamworth. The Supreme Court was yesterday shown the footage from a camera mounted in Senior Constable Rixon's car as he tailed a white Holden Statesman in March last year. The Holden driver, Michael Allan Jacobs, crossed a gutter and then a footpath before stopping next to a block of units. The officer parked his car and approached the vehicle. Off-camera, but recorded on a portable microphone he was holding, Sen-Constable Rixon said: "G'day mate, how are you going? Just going to breath test you, buddy. A shot was fired moments later before Jacobs was allegedly caught on the muffled recording crying out: "Die ... Sen-Constable Rixon suffered a fatal chest wound after a .38 calibre bullet pierced his wrist then entered his heart and lung. Several of the officer's family members listened with their hands clasped over their mouths as the recording was played, before sobbing and holding one another in the court's public gallery. The audio went silent after a volley of gunfire, during which Sen-Constable Rixon shot Jacobs in the abdomen, thigh and shoulder. Yesterday afternoon, Senior Constable Lauren McNeice broke down as she was reminded of her attempts at the scene to revive the critically wounded policeman using CPR. She said Jacobs was lying on the ground nearby and she heard him say: "I'm sorry, sorry, I'm sorry. He also said: 'It feels like I've been shot 10 times'," she said. Jacobs has pleaded not guilty to murder. The trial continues before Justice Richard Button.
