Greenville, South Carolina — On September 6, 2023, prior to the shooting, a 911 call was made to dispatch by a relative requesting a welfare check on 36-year-old Gary Whitten due to recent concerning behavior and his expressed intention of dying. A second call was made by the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office to the relative to get the cell phone number for Whitten. The Sheriff’s Office informed the caller that deputies were at the location to perform a welfare check on Whitten and wanted to know if that would be triggering for him due to his threats. Back to January 17, 2024, deputies deputies were staged outside a mobile home in Landrum, where Whitten was hiding after killing his mother and longtime partner.

Deputies called for Whitten to surrender for about 26 minutes before he stepped outside. During negotiating attempts, Whitten stepped outside and extended his arms while holding a chrome object and pointed it at deputies, which turned out to be a shower head. Believing the object was a firearm, eight deputies fired at Whitten. At least 20 shots are fired in rapid succession over six seconds as Whitten falls to the ground on the front porch. Sheriff’s office medics then tried to perform life-saving efforts on Whitten, but he was pronounced dead at the scene. While an independent investigation by the State Law Enforcement Division is ongoing, the sheriff’s office internal affairs office found that the deputies were justified in using deadly force.

Did they SHOWER him with bullets?

Yep, that's a new one for this channel. A shower handle??

Dont be that dumb folks…

When you make yet another bad decision after many bad decisions, you just might get held accountable.

LMFAO I read the comments before watching the whole video & was so confused 😂

Trigger happy cops

Omgg. Are u serious?? Wth was he thinking. That can easily pass from a distance as a gun being pointed at them. Woww. Did he really lose his life over a shower head?????!!!!. If so, I'm "assuming", Suicide by Cop". Maybe. Idk what a dumb move. Smh.

Force before actionm. This was action before force. Learn the difference.

He forgot to rinse..

We all know what happened here. The perp tried to get a clean getaway using a shower handle, right.

Very poorly written caption. Did he just kill people and then did the unalive by cop?

You could say they SHOWERED him in bullets 🤭🚿

Don’t take a shower handle to a gunfight

So is the whole department inept?

"On September 6, 2023"
"Back to January 17, 2024, deputies deputies"
was this written by AI or what is going on here?

Everyone relax… They have a handle on the situation.

Nancy mace is whack

Suspect was showered with bullets!

Hasta la verga

0:57 "hold your shit". Is it a frequent phenomena among american police units that they need to be told to hold in their feces? Or was someone on the team in a desperate need and the officer knew this and wanted to support his collegue?
