Was Stratton's Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination violated when the jury was shown a video with him refusing to identify himself to Officer Chavez during a Terry stop?

A party of about 20 people, including Hispanics and African Americans, turned violent when a fight erupted and two black men were evicted. They returned shortly with Torrence Stratton, who was described as wearing a "bright" shirt. They brandished guns, were forced out, but returned immediately and fired shots, striking several party-goers. Pasco Police Officer Chavez, patrolling in an audio/video equipped car, was notified by dispatch about the shooting. He spotted and followed a vehicle matching the dispatch description, and pulled in behind the suspect vehicle when it parked on a side street. He saw a black male dressed in a yellow shirt walking away; he was Torrance Stratton. Officer Chavez testified that Stratton "didn't want to talk to me." Defense counsel objected; the court sustained the objection and instructed the jury to disregard that testimony. However, a video of Officer Chavez stopping Stratton was played to the jury. The man identified as Stratton did not clearly respond when asked his name three times. What will be an ideal response?
