2 charged with murder after Georgia deputy dies from wounds
Two suspects have been charged with murder following a shooting that left a Georgia sheriff's deputy dead, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) on Monday. The deputy, identified as Lt. Justin Bedwell, died at a hospital Monday, the GBI wrote in a statement. He had been in critical condition after being shot inside his car Saturday afternoon during the pursuit. The suspects, Troy Arthur Phillips, 40, and Brad Phillips, 41, were both arrested following the chase and subsequent manhunt which began in Seminole County following an attempted traffic stop. (During a subsequent pursuit, which included a gunfight) the suspects then drove into the driveway of a residence where they attempted to gain entry by shooting through the door, but the homeowner returned fire and the suspects fled, according to the GBI. One of the suspects then shot and critically injured Bedwell, who was arriving at the scene, authorities said. The suspects eventually crashed in a wooded area, police said. Brad Phillips was reportedly taken into custody at the scene. Troy Phillips was captured Sunday following a manhunt. Each are charged with felony murder and aggravated assault of a police officer, among other things, according to the GBI.
