Lowndes County Sheriff John Williams was fatally shot when he approached a truck because the music was loud, and he was asking an occupant of the pickup to turn it down, according to law enforcement and an eyewitness.

About 8:15 p.m. Saturday, Williams was shot at the QV convenience store near the Lowndes County Courthouse on the downtown square in Hayneville. Law enforcement apprehended the suspect William Chase Johnson, 18, after a nearly four-hour search when he walked up to the shooting scene about 12:05 a.m. Sunday with a firearm in his hand and was taken into custody after the manhunt.

Johnson has been charged with murder, according to Elmore jail records. No bond has been set.

I’ll go with Louisiana. Or maybe Florida. Or it could be Kansas. Gotta be one of those three. I’m sure of it.

[Robert DeLong]

Fry the little white boy. What an ignorant reaction for a request to turn down his music.

[Robert DeLong]

Alabama.

I swear, most "journalists" these days are borderline illiterate. If I have to read the sentence multiple times just to figure out the fundamentals of what is going on, you suck.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Dang! That was my fourth guess!

Anyway, I was pretty darn close with Louisiana and Florida, wasn’t I?

[sport]

I would say Mississippi.

[Osage Orange]

Cop’s son...too!

[sport]

I was wrong. It was Alabama. Maybe the shooter will get to ride the gurney. I would prefer that he ride the lightening bolt. But I will be happy with the gurney and joy juice.

[Robert DeLong]

Yeah you were close, if we are talking about a nuclear explosion I guess. 8>)

[Robert DeLong]

Really? Perhaps he has animus to the Chief because of his father. Regardless, a totally ignorant reaction that he will soon regret.

[Cowboy Bob]

In Louisiana, they have Parishes, not Counties.

[M-cubed]

Do we have to know his color before we fry him?

[Meatspace]

“William Chase Johnson”

In prison, they will call him Chased.

[dfwgator]

Turn down for what?

[pepsionice]

Eventually, someone will lead this around and ask about drug usage. Kid was hyped up on something.

[4Runner]

There’s a Lowndes County in Georgia.

[Deaf Smith]

Louisiana does not have counties.

That should have been your last guess of the 57 states.
