Troup County GA deputy shot while doing welfare check

Listen to the Armed Alabama Show Tuesday Nights at 7pm CT at: https://fmtalk1065.com/# or https://www.armedalabama.com/radio-show/ January 9, 2017 A Troup County sheriff's deputy was chased then shot while performing welfare check. The Deputy, Michael Hockett, was checking on Matthew Edmonson who was reported to be mentally unstable by his family. Deputy Hockett got in his car, shot and bleeding and raced towards the hospital as he had to exit the scene or be killed, as he was too remote to wait on EMTs. The shooter, Matthew Edmonson, was taken into custody after an hours-long standoff outside a Troup County residence. Deputy Michael Hockett was conducting a welfare check on Matthew Edmonson, 28, at the request of his family. His family had concerns about his mental condition. When Hockett arrived, according to Troup County Deputy Stewart Smith, "he exited his vehicle to go around a fence toward the house and heard what he described as a banging sound. "As he looked in the direction of the noise, he saw a white male firing a gun at him," Smith said. Hockett retreated, at which time Edmonson got into a truck and began driving toward him. Edmonson then stopped and exited his truck and began firing at Deputy Hockett. Hockett returned fire, striking Edmonson, who then got in the truck and went back to the house. Deputy Hockett was struck by multiple pieces of buck shot in the face, hand and torso. He retreated to his vehicle and called for help, then began his race for medical help. After a SWAT team and other police tactical units surrounded the home, Edmonson eventually came out of the residence and talked with his friends on the phone, who were also talking with police and persuading Edmonson to surrender. Edmonson was treated at a local hospital for a gunshot wound to the shoulder. Hockett was treated at West Georgia Medical Center.
