On Sunday, September 28, just before 1 p.m., the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office launched an investigation after receiving a report of an armed individual trespassing on a vacant property. The suspect was later identified as 44-year-old Johnny Ray Moore Jr. Deputies said Moore had previously been issued a trespass notice for the same property on Stegall Circle. The caller also told dispatchers that Moore claimed he intended to “make law enforcement kill him.” When deputies arrived, the caller directed them to Moore, who was informed that he was under arrest for trespassing after notice. As deputies approached, Moore fled while carrying a hammer. According to officials, deputies issued several verbal commands before Moore reportedly raised the hammer in a manner that made them believe he was preparing to throw it. One of the deputies then fired, striking Moore. Deputies waited for additional units to arrive before providing medical aid. Moore was transported by EMS to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead several hours later. All responding deputies were unharmed. 0:00 - Description of events 0:15 - 911 call 1:32 - Bodycam footage 2:06 - Suspect fleds and shooting ⚠️ Disclaimer: This video may contain footage and audio that some viewers could find disturbing.
