An off-duty cop has been shot dead over $83.45 worth of stolen beer when he confronted three suspects robbing a convenience store.

Sergeant Philip Dale Nix saw the trio shoplifting from a Sheetz on Sandy Ridge Road in Greensboro, North Carolina, on Saturday.

He was allegedly gunned down by Jamere Justice Foster, 18, and died in hospital despite the efforts of a second off-duty policeman and a paramedic.

'He was a loving husband, father, son and brother with 22 years of service to the department and this community,' Greensboro Police Chief John Thompson said.

'We ask for prayers for the family of the fallen officer and our Greensboro PD family.'

Foster was charged with felony first-degree murder, misdemeanor larceny and conspiracy.

John Walter Morrison, 28, was charged with misdemeanor larceny, conspiracy and felony accessory after the fact to first-degree murder.

Both are held without bail.

Zquriah Lepearce Blackwell, 18, was charged with felony accessory after the fact to first-degree murder and was held on a $500,000 bond.

A warrant for her arrested accused her of helping Foster escape after he allegedly shot Nix, and encouraging him to dispose of the gun and getaway car's license plate.

“View the video, and give them the death penalty, just like they did to this man.”

You just can’t do that, not even with a conventional trial and the usual wad of appeals. What we must consider is how to prevent this again, which involves racial justice. They cannot be sentenced to death if the number of their race on death row is disproportionate to the racist privileged white people on death row.

We must show compassion and pardon these poor discriminated against people.

(and this was written with a very heavy dose of sarcasm, but I betcha there are lefties that actually think this, including self hating whites)

Which was the girl?

The one with the most consonants in her name.

She's also the one with the highest Scrabble score for her name.

Confronted them how ? Stop in the name of the law won’t work.
Does anyone know if he drew his weapon ?
I will assume he was carrying.
Sounds like the thug got the drop on him.

“Z’quriah” was the girl.

Your best guess on how to pronounce that is as good as mine.

Her nickname is Za, so I’m guessing Za-queer-ee-uh, accent on the second syllable. If FB can be trusted, she’s also pregnant.

im sick and tired of them being called “ suspects” when there is video evidence or eye witnesses who know the defendent. it should be “ defendent” as soon as charges are made and they are in custody.
