Police dash cam update from Leonard Allan Cure traffic stop
[MAIL] Georgia police have released dashcam video of the moment a sheriff's deputy shot and killed 53-year-old Leonard Allan Cure, a man who spent 16 years in prison on a wrongful conviction, after Cure attacked him during a traffic stop.
The incident occurred at 7.30am on Monday in Camden County, north of Jacksonville on the state line with Florida.
Cure was speeding at more than 100mph in his pick-up truck. He was pulled over by an as-yet unnamed sheriff's deputy, who ordered him out of his vehicle and to put his hands on the back of his truck.
'I ain't doing s**t,' Cure replied, before eventually marching to the rear of the vehicle.
He then raised one hand in the air, prompting the cop to taser him, then he swung at the sheriff's deputy.
The pair wrestled for several seconds until Cure overpowered the cop, bending him over the back of the truck while keeping a firm grip on his chin.
No gunshots can be heard in the video but this is the moment the sheriff's deputy shot him, once in the side, causing Cure to fall to the ground.
