Body camera footage of a fatal officer-involved shooting in Thomasville has now been released. Herbert Gilbert Jr., 37, was fatally shot last August while Thomas County Drug Agents attempted to serve a search warrant at his home. The shooting set off several days of protests in Thomas County. Last week, a grand jury ruled this shooting was justified and now we have the footage showing what led to a drug agent firing those fatal shots. The video shows Thomas County Drug Agents arriving at a home on Magnolia Street. One agent announces he has a search warrant. After deputies search the home, they learn Gilbert is outside in an SUV. Coming from the left side of the video, you can see an agent’s truck ramming into the front of the SUV Gilbert is driving.
The truck pits Gilbert’s SUV into a neighboring yard where multiple deputies demand he get out of the car. The SUV begins to roll back and that’s when Deputy Josh Smith fires multiple rounds into the windshield. He fired seven rounds into the windshield and an eighth round into the passenger window. An autopsy revealed Gilbert was struck nine times. Gilbert was found with marijuana and $883 in his pocket and a set of scales in his vehicle. Body cam footage also showed first responders performing CPR on Gilbert and a chaotic scene with family members and neighbors arriving. The case could go to a civil trial.

I pray he survived I feel for his family, yet he did this to himself "I'm A Black Woman"
"Ya ain't got no right to scaya me". If you aren't a criminal, why in the hell are scared of the police? Don't give me the, "I'm black" nonsense.
Tip #2 Driving a vehicle with the intent of fleeing and endanger police/civilian lives will get you shot. More tips to come
The family members really tick me off.
That boy wasn't a good buy if hes doing bad things man these people blind. I shook by their reaction. He was NOT good!
Wait…what happened in my front yard?
What part of the world is this?
Crazy what happens when you turn your car isn't a multi ton bullet
how did justice work before badge, body and street cameras?
badge cam officer text book a to z.
excellent pit move
The dude in the truck, did a pit maneuver in a residential neighborhood, you don't do that its a bad use of force. The dude with the body camera seems completely unsympathetic almost callous.
Boy the racist comments under this video smh
i am a black man and i hate n…..
I hope that “the talk†parents give their kids includes something like, “don’t engage in illegal drug activities to attract the attention of law enforcement and don’t attempt to lead police on a deadly chase that puts innocent people at risk.â€

Hot Lead Cures All.
legalize all drugs and this type of killings will go down like 99%. It is absurd to prosecute people for non violent crimes, it is absurd to fire 9 times against non violent people.
Why is there always chaos ? They done kilt her baby. He was a good boy !
