在Greenville州和Barry州,在当时持有武器的嫌疑人被杀后,正在调查两起涉嫌参与的枪击事件。 Two deputy-involved shootings in Greenville and Barry Counties are under investigation after suspects, armed at the time, were killed.
12月28日, Greenville县警长的副警长在接到关于一名自杀者的电话后开枪打死66岁的Joseph Dominic Mason。 On December 28, a Greenville County Sheriff's deputy shot and killed 66-year-old Joseph Dominic Mason after responding to a call about a suicidal person. Mason持有武器,拒绝放下武器,导致副手使用致命武力,据说,根据该部的政策,这种武力是合理的。 Mason was armed and refused to drop his weapon, leading the deputy to use deadly force, which is said to be justified under the department's policy. 在另一起事件中,巴里县检察官裁定,10月一名副手射杀Jeremiah Jacob Johnson是正当的,因为Johnson曾在国内骚乱中拔枪。 In a separate incident, the Barry County Prosecutor ruled a deputy's shooting of Jeremiah Jacob Johnson in October as justifiable, as Johnson had drawn a firearm during a domestic disturbance. 这两个案件正由国家机构进行调查。 Both cases are under investigation by state agencies.
