Sheriff's Office: 11 Shots Fired by Deputy

The deputy that fired on a suspect in a car allegedly trying to run him over on Monday got off 11 shots according to investigators.

Sheriff Al Canon held a press conference Wednesday during which he gave reporters a glimpse of the car. CCSO investigators had recreated the trajectories the bullets traveled through the car with various colored strings slicing through the windows and doors.

In all the deputy, Shawn James, who is on paid administrative leave while SLED investigates the incident, fired into the vehicle 11 times. The initial shots entered through the windshield, and as the car pulled past, the shots peppered the driver's side of the vehicle.

The driver, 21-year-old Terrance Alexander Green, remains in the hospital. . Sheriff's Office spokesman Mjr. James Brady said charges have not been filed against Green yet, but Brady expects Green to be charged once he is released from the hospital.

Canon said he did not know why Green refused to stop when James attempted to pull him over on Ashley River Road Monday, or why Green drove to the Ardmoore neighborhood following the shooting.

Investigators said they recovered evidence that Green went into the back seat of the car after he stopped on Juniper Street, but they did not know why, or what was in the back seat at the time.
