Utah Police Release Body Camera Video of Gabby Petito and Fiancé 2 Weeks Before Her Disappearance

Utah police have released body camera footage from an encounter with missing 22-year-old Long Island, New York, native Gabrielle Petito about two weeks before she was last heard from.

According to police, Petito and her fiancé, 23-year-old Brian Laundrie, were in Moab, Utah, on Aug. 12. That morning, someone called police after the two appeared to argue outside a food cooperative called Moonflower. Moab police pulled the couple over a short time later.

In the footage, when the officer approached the vehicle, he immediately separated Petito and Laundrie before interviewing them about the alleged altercation.

"We've just been fighting this morning, some personal issues," Petito explained, crying as she spoke with the officer. She then told police that she had become frustrated with Laundrie earlier in the day.

During his interview, Laundrie said that, once Petito became frustrated, he locked the doors to the van and suggested they go on a walk to cool off. When the officer asked Laundrie about scratches on his face and neck, he replied: "She had her phone and was trying to get the keys from me. I said, 'Let's just step back and breathe,' and she got me with her phone."

The couple agreed to separate for the night, and Petito kept the van while Laundrie headed to a hotel.

Later, in paperwork, police would categorize the incident as a "mental health crisis."

Petito and Laundrie — who has been named a person of interest in his fiancée's disappearance — had been traveling across America in a white Ford Transit van since early July.

Last month, they arrived in Salt Lake City, Utah, staying only a short time as wildfire smoke blanketed the region.

The couple apparently stopped in Grand Teton National Park on Aug. 25 before heading for Yellowstone.

Petito was reported missing on Sept. 11 — 10 days after Laundrie returned to his parents' North Port, Florida, home in their van. Relatives last had contact with Petito on Aug. 25, when she was near Grand Teton National Park in Jackson, Wyoming.
