Police charge man with killing deputy Web posted January 14, 1998

Associated Press
DUBLIN, Ga. -- A 49-year-old man accused of killing a Laurens County deputy was shouting and acting irrationally moments before gunning down the officer, Sheriff Kenny Webb said Tuesday after viewing a tape of the traffic stop that led to the shooting.
Andrew Howard Brannan of McDonough was arrested Tuesday morning after police found him hiding in a sleeping bag beneath a camouflage tarp, about 100 yards from the Laurens County house where police had tracked him after the Monday shooting.
Mr. Brannan, who had no previous criminal record, was charged with murder in the death of Deputy Kyle Dinkheller. He was taken to a hospital for treatment of a gunshot wound in the stomach, apparently inflicted by Deputy Dinkheller.
Deputy Dinkheller, 22, was shot with a rifle about 5:30 p.m. Monday after he stopped a man who was speeding in a white truck.
Mr. Brannan's ``behavior was real bizarre,'' Sheriff Webb said. ``He charged the deputy and was yelling, `Shoot me. Shoot me.'
``I don't understand what set him off, why he was acting the way he did. I just don't know. I wish I did.''
Mr. Brannan was clocked at speeds of up to 98 miles an hour on Interstate 16 before finally being stopped on a rural road about six miles northwest of Dublin near the Dudley community, Sheriff Webb said.
The sheriff said he couldn't tell from the videotape if Mr. Brannan knocked down Deputy Dinkheller during his initial charge at the officer, but the next thing he saw was Mr. Brannan going back to his vehicle.
``He got an M-1 carbine (rifle) and Dinkheller was pleading with him to drop the gun when out of the blue he (Brannan) started firing,'' the sheriff said.
``They both fired several rounds. I think Dinkheller was hit three times. The fatal wound was in the head. Brannan was wounded in the gut. I don't think he's going die.''
Mr. Brannan was listed in guarded condition Tuesday at a Dublin hospital.
After Deputy Dinkheller was killed, authorities tracked Mr. Brannan to a house near Dudley, where the white truck and a rifle were found, said John Bankhead, a spokesman for the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.
They sprayed the house with tear gas during the night but no one was found inside.
At daybreak, they began to search the area around the house and found Mr. Brannan in his makeshift hide-out, Mr. Bankhead said.
Deputy Dinkheller had been with the sheriff's department nearly three years. He was married and had a child about 18 months old.
Services are tentatively scheduled for Friday at 11 a.m. at Jefferson Street Baptist Church in Dublin, with burial to follow at Dublin Memorial Gardens.
A fund to help the slain deputy's family has been set up at the Bank of Dudley.

I first saw this video about 5 years ago. I will watch it again at some point in the future, but not yet.

Continuing prayers to the deputy's wife and children.


Several points about this situation, and any real shooting for that matter:

- You can not hesitate in gun battle situations. Make a decision and stick to it. If you are going to retreat to fight another day, then do so. If you are going to stand your ground you must do so strongly and with purpose.

- The suspect uses classic shoot and move tactics. He almost never fires more than a few rounds from the same position. As soon as he does shoot, he moves somewhere else. I can only imagine being the deputy trying to keep track of where this guy was. (by the way, I think the deputy was hit at least 8 or 9 times prior to the fatal shot)

- Train like you fight, fight like you train. Yes, it is cliche, but if all you shoot at is bullseyes and static targets, when it comes down to a real scenario you will not be as prepared as you need to be. At least throw a shirt over your target some time so you get a different sight picture. It's better than nothing.

I am in no way trying to monday morning quarterback this incident. I am just trying to make some key points. Take something useful away from watching this. Don't just let it be another internet video that you watch and then forget.

My two cents.

I'm with WT351 on this one.

First and foremost my prayers to the family and the children. For they will know that their father was a true hero!

This peice of shit unfortunatly was has been trained, just by his combat skills, shoot & move.

TREAT EVERY MOTOR VECHICLE STOP LIKE IT IS GOING TO GO BAD---ALWAYS

Once the perp exited the vehicle the officer should have cleared leather if you cannot see their hands for even a second always assume a weapon is coming, you can always reholster later.

Furthermore, the first charge at the officer when the individaul came-up shouting before he retreated to the truck for the gun I'd sprayed him with pepper, any advancement on a law enforcement officer in a threatening manner is considered combative and should be met with enough force to end the advance on the officer .

The officer once the weapon was pulled should have had his sites trained on the perp center mass not in middle ready and giving commands to drop the gun as some rural depts still preach, fucking hate that practice.

I know hend site is always 20/20, but when some knuckle-head is doing 98 mph and exits a vehilcle. (Officier should be asking why the high speed and treat it like a felony stop) before the officer got out of his patrol car he should have reached for the 12 ga shotgun to be deployed or AR223 if the dept issues them, you can always put it away if not needed.

The more thou bleedth in training, the less thou bleedth in battle, train hard fight hard. Unfortunatly, due to politics, officers are trained to only fire when fired upon or when a weapon is in a treatening motion towards the officer(s). I personally would have given 1 order to drop weapon, and then fired, fuck'em politics

I would much rather be judged by 12, than carried by 6


My prayer to the family, and god be with all the men and women in blue:TOB:
