AMERICUS, GA (WTVM) - The Sumter County Sheriff's Office chaplain announced at a vigil Wednesday night that the second officer shot by an armed and dangerous suspect earlier in the day has made it out of surgery.
Americus Police Officer Nicholas Ryan Smarr, 25, was shot and killed by 32 year-old Minguel Lembrick.
Lembrick was identified as the suspect by the Sumter Co. Sheriff's Office. The second officer, Officer Smith, was also shot.
This is disgusting in the extreme!

Suspect Minguel Lembrick - Previous mugshot
How long will we put up with this?
Wonder if going into law enforcement is going to be an option for young adults.
However long, it’ll be far TOO damned long; all thanks to Obama and his gang of hate filled SJW BIGOTS. :-(
This was just posted by a relative of Officer Nick Smarr. I received a screen shot of the facebook post:
“At this time I want to tell you about one of the bravest men that I have ever heard of. My nephew Nick Smarr. Nick received the domestic call around 9:30am and immediately went to the location. As Nick approached the front door and fellow officer Jodi Smith headed to the back door, Nick noticed the front door was slightly opened, hearing commotion in the house, he called out and pushed the door open further. He immediately recognized the suspect and radioed it in. At that time the suspect fled out the back door and Nick pursued through the house. As Nick came out the back door the suspect fired several shots critically wounding officer Smith, Nick returned fire while he was also shot and mortally wounded. After firing a half dozen rounds at the suspect, Nick ran to his fellow officer and BEST friend, he rolled him from his face down position and performed CPR until he could no longer continue. When other officers arrived at the scene, Nick Smarr was lying across his fallen comrade and best friend where he succumbed to his injuries.
At this time (since our last update) officer Smith is in a coma in seriously critical condition.
Please pray for our friends and family during this difficult time. We have been assured by the Americus Police Department that they and the some 300 law enforcement officer involved in the man hunt will not....”
That is all I got from the screen shot, but I thought you all should hear the story.
Another Obama White House visitor?
Prayers up.
