A shooting at a traffic stop Friday left a Virginia deputy dead, another deputy wounded and the alleged gunman in custody.
Smyth County Sheriff's Deputies Hunter Reedy and Michael Fedorchuk, as well as Marion police officers, pulled over a vehicle that Marion police had tried to stop for a moving violation, the Bristol Herald-Courier reports. The driver eventually stopped roughly a mile out of town. The driver—identified as Timothy Wayne Goodman, a 65-year-old man from North Carolina, was cited during the stop and became upset, opening fire.
Reedy, 27, was fatally shot, and Fedorchuk was wounded. Fedorchuk was taken to the hospital and is expected to recover.
"I lost a deputy, a brave hero," said Sheriff Chip Shuler during a press conference.
Goodman was charged with aggravated murder, as well as four counts of attempted aggravated murder and a charge of use of a firearm in the commission of a felony.
