He fell over himself trying to run away. :mjlol:

To shoot at a cop on your own property is something you tell to your kids about when you get old.

Is that your wife and daughter in your avi?
His kid was with him. The boy got out and his dad escorted him to the car.

Edmondson allegedly shot Deputy Michael Hockett after Hockett was performing a wellness check at request of Edmondson’s father, who was concerned about his son’s mental wellbeing.

When Hockett arrived, police say he exited his vehicle to go around a fence toward the house and heard what he described as a banging sound.

"As he looked in the direction of the noise, he saw a white male firing a gun at him," said Sgt. Stewart Smith, spokesman for the Troup County sheriff’s office.

Hockett retreated, at which time Edmondson, according to Smith, got into a truck and began driving toward him.

"At that point the individual exited his truck and began firing at the deputy," Smith said. After announcing himself as a deputy, Hockett returned fire, striking Edmondson, who then got in the truck and went back to the house.

Hockett was struck by multiple pieces of buck shot in the face, hand and torso. He retreated to his vehicle and called for help.

After a SWAT team and other police tactical units surrounded the home, Edmondson eventually came out of the residence and walked around the yard for several minutes while talking on a cell phone.
