Camera Glasses Capture Startling Moment South Carolina Cop Is Shot Point Blank By Robbery Suspect

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.



Startling video footage captured by a South Carolina cop’s camera glasses shows the officer being shot three times at point-blank range — with him asking a dispatcher to “tell my family that I love them” in what he thought was his dying breath.

“For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to executewrath upon him that doeth evil.” Romans 13:4 (KJV)

EDITOR’S NOTE: Police officers across America risk their lives each and every day they show up for work, knowing that each day could be their last. For SC Officer Quincy Smith, it almost was. Officer Smith had purchased camera glasses on Amazon shortly before this heinous incident took place, and they perfectly captured the crime in real-time as it happened. After watching this video perhaps you will have a better understanding as to why police can sometimes be quick to use their weapons. Officer Smith didn’t use his in time, and it was nearly fatal. NTEB says a heartfelt THANK YOU to peace officers all across the nation, we really appreciate the job you do. To all the men and women in blue, thank you.

Officer Quincy Smith, of the Estill Police Department, managed to survive that fateful day last January after suffering two broken arm bones and a “life-threatening” neck injury, according to Hampton County officials.

His assailant, Malcolm Orr, 29, was found guilty of attempted murder and possession of a weapon and sentenced to 35 years Wednesday following a two-day trial.

“If but not for the grace of God and some very good doctors, this would not only have been a murder case, but a death penalty case,” explained 14th Circuit Solicitor Duffie Stone, who prosecuted the case.

Smith had been responding to a suspicious persons call on New Year’s Day 2016 when the shooting happened at about 11 a.m., authorities said.

A clerk at a local store told the officer that a man wearing camouflage and a red bandanna had been trying to steal groceries from customers. Upon his arrival, Smith spotted Orr walking away from the store and approached him in his vehicle.

The video — which was captured with a camera that Smith bought himself and placed on his eyeglasses — shows him exiting his squad car and politely asking Orr, who is on his cellphone, to stop.

“Come here, man. Come here for a second,” Smith says.

As he gets closer to Orr, Smith notices that he has his hand in his pocket as if he’s carrying a weapon.

“Take your hands out your pocket!” Smith yells. “If you don’t stop, I’m gonna tase you. I’m not playing with you!”

Orr takes a few more steps before finally revealing the weapon — a 9mm handgun — and opening fire.

“Shots fired!” Smith screams, while running back to his vehicle.

“I am hit. I am hit in my neck someplace,” he says. “Dispatch, please tell my family I love them.”

While cops initially said Smith was shot three times, he ultimately was fired upon “not once, not twice, not three times, or four, or five, or six, or seven, but eight times,” according to prosecutors.

Each of the spent bullet casings was placed on the railing of the jury box during Orr’s trial. It took jurors less than 45 minutes before they came back with their guilty verdict. source
