Kelly has said that police shot at the car after it drove forward and struck an undercover officer and an unmarked police minivan. The information was based on interviews with witnesses and two officers who did not fire their weapons, he said.
But a witness account emerged Monday disputing that version of events.
Trini Wright, a dancer at the strip club where Bell's bachelor party was held, told the Daily News she was going to a diner with the men and was putting her makeup bag in the trunk of their car when the police minivan appeared.
''The minivan came around the corner and smashed into their car. And they (the police) jumped out shooting,'' Wright, 28, told the newspaper for Monday editions. ''No 'stop.' No 'freeze.' No nothing.''
