As the two officers were walking the trio out of the tavern one of them, Michael Wayne Green, turned and shot both officers at point blank range with a .38 caliber revolver. Both officers returned fire and hit Michael Green four times. Officer James Chamblin died before reaching the hospital. Master Patrolman John Campbell and Michael Green survived their wounds.

It will take the dedication of our communities to raise survivor voices up while holding accountable those who have harmed them.
