- Four officers were killed and four others were injured Monday in a shooting in an east Charlotte neighborhood. Three members of the U.S. Marshals Task Force died in the shooting, according to Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Johnny Jennings, along with a Charlotte police officer. The four officers killed were identified as:
Charles Thomas Weeks, a U.S. Marshal assigned to the Fugitive Task Force
Samuel "Sam" Poloche, with the North Carolina Department of Adult Correction
William "Alden" Elliot, with the North Carolina Department of Adult Correction
Joshua Eyer, a 6-year veteran of the Charlotte Police Department
The Charlotte Police Department held a news conference about the shooting at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, featuring remarks from Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles, Gov. Roy Cooper, Attorney General Josh Stein and Ronald Davis, director of the U.S. Marshals Service.
"Today is an absolute tragic day for the city of Charlotte and for the profession of law enforcement," Jennings said. "Today we lost some heroes that are out to just simply try to keep our community safe."
Jennings said officers were attempting to serve a warrant Monday to 39-year-old Terry Clark Hughes, Jr., for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon at a home near the 5000 block of Galway Drive.
"When they approached that individual, they were met with gunfire," Jennings said. "Officers returned gunfire and struck the victim, who was later pronounced deceased in the front yard of the residence."
During Tuesday's news conference, Jennings said Hughes fired at officers from the upstairs of the home in both the front and the back.
Hughes was wanted for possession of a firearm by a felon and felony flee to elude (two counts) out of Lincoln County, North Carolina. Jennings said Hughes was shot down in the front yard of the home, where he died.

When you have 9 pages of prior arrest it tells you the problem is the judicial system.
America has close to 2 million citizens incarcerated, more than any other country except China. High incarceration rates does not increase public safety. America is about funding the military industrial complex instead of funding schools. Lack of decent schools to educate all Americans is the issue.
trump have 84
Everyone keeps talking about previous arrests and such. What was he arrested for or what charges was he convicted of?
@@AndyCutrightfelony’s with weapons
@@feralLove ....what a double-decker Oscar Meyer Boloney Sandwich.......it is the lack of decent PARENTS that cause the incarceration rates....kids run wild in single mother household,s while the mothers are bitter, game the system, and pass that attitude along....decent schools? get rid of the freakazoid teachers who are poisoning our youth....
Let me get this straight-an airport manager that was suspected of selling guns at a gun show has 20 ATF
agents break his door down at 6 am in full military gear and shoot him dead in his own home. This guy is a convict with a record for illegal gun charges and they just go knock on his door in broad daylight and take no precautions whatsoever. WTF
Yes, you'd think they would have come in with a Bear Cat and loaded with everything!
I Live in charlotte, He saw them coming and start shooting, I believe some of those officers got shot by their own over 100 shots were heard,
High value target
Vs. regular day
Some people are being Targeted heavy
I'm not understanding why they weren't prepared for anything. He has a very long criminal history and probably should not have been free
This guy didn't fit the feds narrative. You'd think the ATF would be in Chicago hunting down Glock switches but there's no conservatives or patriots there.
A felony firearms warrant... I think the shooter disagreed with the DOJ assessment.
He was a convicted felon and wasn't allowed to have firearms.
@@LordVader407 This is a Country of Laws. Some Laws do prohibit people from having firearms. That's just the way it works.
Exactly!!
@@Buddha-of8fk actually, no they don't. If a person is too dangerous to have their rights then they're too dangerous to be out in public. That's the law. Just because you committed a crime does not give the federal government the ability nor the power to take away anyone's rights. That's according to the Declaration and the Constitution. The federal government also doesn't have the power to police anything. That's also according to the Declaration. So if you want to go by the law the current government we have in place is in fact criminal.
Ya Think
And not a single mugshot was found by "journalists" that day telling us all we need to know about this guy.
If your that slow where you couldn’t do a simple google search then I don’t know what to tell you.
They had it but it wasn't right color.
his mugshot in in a video preview on this page lol
It was a 39 year old black man
@@cephasbailey4436 How do we know he was black? Have they found his DNA?
AR 14??? Is that a new model?
🤣
Sorry for getting it wrong Ted Nugent😂
Yea the AR 14 comes with a full semi automatic mode that also excepts a magazine clip and heat seeking rounds.
Lol, maybe a california 'legal' AR 15 is the AR14
Lol
There is no such thing as a magazine clip.@rudesoledevil154
He really didn't want to go jail
He didn't he went to the morgue
won't have to worry about that now. Grady would call this guy "GRAVEYARD DEAD"......
Well think what’s worse. 20 years in prison or die and respawn immediately in another body?
he had nothing to worry about the judge and DA would of had him released before the officers got home
Yeah but they went with him@@calicoasting
How and why could a judge have let him out of prison so quickly?
Imagine them trying to take everyone guns they will have a depleted resources in a week Edit: Thanks for the likes may the officer rest in peace 🕊️ 🙏

@user-uw8cz5eh1h that was written in the 1700s, we don't live in that world anymore since we are now better secured by our police officers and government. That was written because there was a lack of regulation with laws. You're argument is BS
It all depends on what you mean by everyone.
Because some people's in society should never have hands on a firearm..
The police made a mistake, by walking up to the door instead of waiting him out.
Exactly. This keep happening over and over again. Who give the officers these orders? Darn.
Really they made a mistake and shows marshals who make warrant arrests need more training as it is quite dangerous.
Well, according to THE COPS THEMSELVES, they never made it to the front door. The one nitwit in the yard started shooting when the cops rolled up. They killed him after gunfire exchange and then the shooting started coming from inside the house. First they said the guy killed in the front yard was the subject of the warrant. Now they're saying it was the guy in the house, AFTER yard boy got dropped.
Sorry, but there is nothing “simple” about serving a warrant! 😡 You are dealing with criminals!!!
And a Felon.
Details matter! Especially after all we have gone through and will be going through
Your very right and you need to give details that your not giving
If the constitution has been violated this changes the whole scope! I feel for families but not giving obvious information is a problem across this country! It’s not you against the public! You took an oath and be part of the community and give truth!
what made him a felon? unjust tyrannical unconstitutional laws?
It's not the tool. The guns are tools. The problem is the justice system.

That's why they didn't pick him up at walmart, the same reason they did David koresh and the Branch davidian, they have to put on a show, never mind he just got back from EZ Mart getting gas, where they could have got him easily...
Corn pop was a bad dude
Something's not right about this whole story Firearm by felon???
He would have been arrested when they found the gun in him!
We know what led up to this tragedy. A judge allowed this man out on bond when he should have been kept in jail without bond awaiting his trial
Really? Why did the judge give him fire arms also? What is the difference between him and other released felons? He was a felon with a gun. What's the proo?. No other felons shot anyone that day. So, he was felon that was different from other felons.
Sounds like a guess to me bc he definitely did time in jail
@ripp704 No, it's not a guess. I did the research
@@tobinprowant8021 and what charge was he out on bond for...
@@ripp704 do your own research!
This is so painful, on so many levels!

I cannot imagine the pain those families are feeling right now.
4 dead for a parole violation warrant. Crazy
I agree. The question I have is this: Was this guy really a "danger" to the public or to just government minions?
@hoodmonk He had 27 prior convictions so his freedom was a joke and a threat to society.
They some busters
The question is How did he violate his parole? They were justified in being there. His parole violation would most likely have put him away for some time and he knew it

That is why they wont go door to door because they know this will happen. That's why they continually try to make everything illegal and make the laws so confusing and arbitrary that it turns normal people into felons on purpose.
Gun confiscation is never going to happen and you know it. Just have to be the paranoid right winger scared of losing his guns. I am a liberal Democrat and we have more important issues to deal with than your fantasized Gun confiscation scenario.

So you mean to tell me that the US Marshals were serving a warrant for someone that was wanted for a possession of a firearm doesn’t seem right…
And all of the guns were there illegally because he was a felon. So before you anti-gun, people come out and say we need to change the laws.The laws are already on the books, but criminals don't follow the law.
He was able to acquire them because of how non-existent oversight laws are for gun possession.
Too much access and no requirements for proof of safe storage means that the illegal gun trade is flourishing. It's simply too easy for someone to turn 18 and start trading legally purchased guns on social media.
We also allow people who are undergoing treatment for severe mental health issues, meaning there is a paper trail demonstrating that they have severe mental illness, to purchase firearms without any oversight.
This is what happens when you treat a complex, nuanced subject with a black-and-white perspective. It's not "This, or that." The solution will have to be as complex and nuanced as the problem, but it DEFINITELY INCLUDES GUN LAWS.
If the dude was white the 2A people would be squalling big time.
@@RealCaptainJaws Due to drunk drivers, cars and pickup trucks should be outlawed. One cylinder 500 CC four-stroke motors on a go-kart type enclosed bodied vehicle should be allowed and only a one passenger capacity. Top speed shall be limited to twenty-five miles per hour, with lots of safety belts, straps and helmets all required. Who NEEDS to go over 25 MPH anyway?
@@Whuffagowie agreed, I don’t feel safe with all these cars on the roads. Too many bad drivers. My safety comes first (sarcasm)
Exactly, Felons don't follow the law period. He fled from another city, warrants were from there as well.
Where is the shooters graduation photo?
😂😂😂
From 4 th grade
Seriously!
He was a dangerous criminal
So are some of the migrants but it’s not much of an effort to track them down.
My deepest condolences to the family who loss 4 officers on the line off duty.
Lord, we pray for everyone touched by the sad moment and we pray for every single officer in this reality, amen
Amen
Amen
Sad moment ?
Reality? Typing a prayer to your imaginary friend in a UA-cam comment is pure fantasy.
I wonder if the cops had played smart and waited till this felon left his home and then made the arrest rather than a full frontal attack on his home. It would have saved lives.
You were not there! Stop acting like you know exactly what went down.
Duhhhh. No kidding. Still horrible but could have been avioded
Typical fed mindset, you would think they would have learned at Waco....
Just because he wasn't there and doesn't know exactly what happened doesn't mean it's not a great point, was it worth it? Or could you maybe waited for him to leave the house and catch him naked out in the front yd out in the open? Creating this type of confrontation is highly debated for this reason, nothing was happening that called for a deadly raid.
That requires Tact, which modern Americans lack.
I find it fkn stupid that police would try to arrest someone in their home as opposed to waiting for the target to leave the home? Seems more dangerous to me.
No, they should be wearing protections
@@brick_housedee6711 protections? I'm sure they were wearing vests. A vest only covers your thorax and entering any building is going to have multiple fatal funnels.
US Marshalls set it off
They're trying to prove a point to America the guns are dangerous, I don't know why they didn't get the guy at 7-Eleven getting $5 worth of gas or Walmart buying underwear, seems like a no-brainer, but they love shooting their guns and they love those no knock warrants
Public arrest can get ugly too, civilians at risk
Quit letting criminals out on bond. I feel like this was not organized correctly or those officers would not have lost their lives.
This is someone who should not have been released from DOC.
Why?
A Dem DA let him out with no time served in 2021

Type in Terry Hughes Jr North Carolina and that picture will tell you all that you need to know why the media kept quiet.
So who fired the shots after the shooter had been taken down in the front yard? It had to be one of the women inside if they were the only ones inside. We are getting a partial report of event.
Another male was dead inside the home. Not sure who killed him, but that was reported yesterday.
@Dan.50 really, the reporting on this is so confusing. I hope they didn't shoot their own
@@Dan.50I have not heard of this 2nd male.

Where did you get this info from..they didnt say anything about another male shooter here.
@@thomaskimparker809Exactly I haven't either, Not adding up
Was one still 17 years old ,
Wow a Felon had a gun?! Dont we have laws against that?! Oh wait, lets blame the gun AGAIN! GTFOHWTBS
Well, we might need a new law, like making it double illegal to break the existing laws.
2nd amendment is a right, not a privilege. Once you are out of prison, it's your God giving right
@MyAntonioavila not if you're a felon. In which he was
Gun laws were made to keep guns out of my hands, not yours.
Surely the fact a Felon got a gun so easily is a question for the number of guns and how easy they are to acquire. Felons and some people with mental health issues are not really big followers of the law, so expecting them not to try to get guns is moronic, surely it is up to society to make it all but impossible for people who have no right to have a gun from having a gun.
Taking a man's gun is as dangerous as taking a steak bone from a dog
If the government ever decides to confiscate this will play out millions of times...or, it will end quickly, as the government realizes it might have miscalculated it's own support...
He was a felon with an illegally obtained firearm.
He was a convicted felon and wasn't allowed to have firearms.
If he was too dangerous to have a gun then he should have been in prison. If he was not in prison then there should have been no restriction on him owning guns.
@@jsacodes916 He was an ex-felon who should automatically have all of their rights restored upon release, otherwise they're privileges.

They messed up, you don't go to the guys home, you wait for him to leave th residence....
That's how they did me waited till I was at work or just wait until he walks out as an undercover
They wanted a fight and got one. Ive always said it's dumb. Raids and no-knock raids just puts everyone involved at unnecessary risk.
YOU DO NOT WANT A DANGEROUS FELON LEAVING THE PROPERTY. It would have put innocent people in the community in the line of harm. They needed to contain him. HE WAS VERY DANGEROUS!!! He had a history of leading police on high speed chases. Would you rather him running the streets on the loose?

Prayers for all officers, the families involved and the citizens of Charlotte NC!!!
What are the prayers gonna do?
Most of these police killing occurs because of ambush during serving of warrants, responding to domestic violence cases and intercepting robbery suspects. It's been going on many years and getting worse. Something is wrong with the training these officers receive and the way the seniors instruct them to carry out certain functions and it MUST BE ADDRESSED NOW !!
You don’t have to be very smart to become a cop
If you are correct then the USA is in big big trouble, because being a police in today's world requires one to be more than smart and properly well trained
Yeah well liberal Americans defunded the police because their feelings were hurt and now there's even less money for training than there already was. They can't be better trained when politics and modern policing prevent these officers from doing so. I don't know how anyone would want to be a cop In today's world. The way they get treated and the bullshit they have to tip toe around on a daily basis is fucking absurd and it will only get worse from here. I hope people are ready to keep hearing about these incidents because it's now inevitable. Rip to the fallen officers..
Sounds like this animal was let out of jail by these Democrat judges and prosecutors only to keep repeating his crimes.
Judges should be more tougher on these kind of felons especially now that these people are getting more powerful and owning high powered weapons! Wake up!!!
Sounds like? Do you know that for sure? Be very careful making statements you do not have privy to?

Agree. The video I saw of the cops on the street showed little or no body armor or helmets, or long guns.
About 20 years ago a fugitive task force came to execute a arrest warrant on myself. I had a DUI which I was ordered to do community service which I had not done. I paid a $300 fine and was released pending a new court date.
So you're just going to incriminate yourself...🤯
@@onyxopinion1468 I'm just saying a warrant doesn't mean you're violent. Whoever comes to serve the warrant is whomever is available. All I've heard is weed, b&e and running.

@onyxopinion1468 How did you come up with that? He was a felon with guns, so they had to take precautions. They said someone else was shooting from the house, but the story is not adding up 🤷🏽♀️
@@onyxopinion1468Exactly what I was saying, like they think everyone is going to be scared of them.
4 questions reporters won't ask and cops wouldn't have answered
1. Was the shooter a former sniper?
2. What do you blame other than the shooter for that many cops getting shot doing something they are trained to do and knew worse case scenario before they got there ?
3. After seeing the condition of the front and back of the house Isn't it possible that there was crossfire or was the shooter just that darn good?
4. Do you always form task forces from local and federal agencies to serve a warrant for a class D felony?
5. BONUS QUESTION Why wasn't Homeland Security and the CIA involved Are they still busy finding and destroying evidence at P Diddys properties?
Question 5 - No they are focused on framing Trump..
For explaining the torn-out condition of the house, I suspect either explosives or a vehicle-mounted tool like a ram or a hook. About 20 years ago a guy shot and killed two Michigan State troopers at the front door of his house. Subsequently they placed a bomb at his front door and blasted their way in. The guy had previously jumped out a back window and it took several more days to catch him.
I offer my most fervent, deepest 🛐prayers 🙏that all❤️💙 affected 🍃🌹plus precious families be comforted and healed with speedy recovery. May the Beloved,🌱 Innocent Victims rest in💐 peace, Amen.
The Felon had better gun fighting skills than the US marshals. No details here???

So let us get our stories straight before we put out information. I don't want what you have to say, I want to know why the cops were there. I want to see the body camera footage.
North Carolina state records show Hughes was convicted of breaking and entering in Person County, which is north of Raleigh-Durham, in 2010. He spent approximately six months in prison before being released in May 2011.
Hughes was arrested in June 2012 after a high-speed chase in Alamance County, which is east of Greensboro and west of Raleigh-Durham. Deputies said Hughes led them on a chase at speeds over 100 mph after turning around to avoid a checkpoint. At the time, he was wanted on several warrants in numerous counties for failing to appear in court. He spent nearly a year in prison for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and speeding to elude arrest.
Hughes was arrested by CMPD on multiple drug charges in May 2021. He was also charged with fleeing or eluding arrest with a motor vehicle. He was released from jail hours later, records show.

It's a few people, mostly repeat offenders who are given lots of breaks by liberal prosecutors and judges. In Michigan, the parole board is releasing thousands of dangerous predators years before their maximum release dates.
It wouldn't be if they would treat criminals like criminals and let cops be feared by criminals but nope the criminals get pampered because they do not fear the police, they do not fear the justice system and they do not fear prison. Prison is like a guarded hotel these days. They have air conditioning, computers, internet, cell phones, television, 3 meals and multiple snacks per day. How can you make criminals fear prison with those accommodations?
Yeah right! I used to think the same thing about Australia! I mean imagine an entire country of criminals sentenced to death. But then I realized it’s not the law abiding citizens that are bad, just the criminals and surprise! 🎉 EVERY country has bad people, that hurt others.
Not really. The US is far from the most violent countries. Remove the 10 most violent zip codes from the statistics and the US would be one of the safest countries in the world.

Cops are the criminals.
They have tried to kill me3 times already.
Judges are also corrupt.
Time to wake up to reality, kiddo.
Prayers to The Police Officers Family
Why did it take days to release the suspects name, and why did this news station not show his photo in this segment, and why does [almost] no news station use his photo in a thumbnail when his name is googled??
Hope that's rhetorical. Everybody knows why. Even black people know even if they don't admit it
They want your imagination to wonder on this one….thats why. And they don’t want people to know black people and drive bus aren’t synonymous
WHO IS THE MASS MURDER SUSPECTS?
Purplez
IF NOTHING CHANGES, THEN NOTHING CHANGES!!!
Thank you for your insight, Captain Obvious!!
What did you ask these brave men to do? This hasn’t been answered!
They had a military attacknupon a mans home over a law that is UNCONSTITUTIONAL
THE PEOPLE dont gaf about lower courta and lower laws
The Conatitition trumps all that crap
He waant in jail ergo STILL HAS SELF DEFENSE RIGHTS
Yes, eith a gun or anything
These cops broke the law
4 of them died for it
@@Npc1488-wc1kfSelf defense not murder.
prayers for the families of the fallen officers... this is unconscionable... condolences.
To the Deceased Officers that lost the IR lives in the line of Service, Condolences to their families and my God grant you Rest and Peace. For those Officers that suffered injuries but survived.. May God be with you and your Families during this time.
The pic of the suspect doesn't help push the narrative of the administration.
Thanks for the video
This was a violent felon who was prohibited from owning firearms and ammunition. Criminals don't care what laws say they can't own, do, etc. criminals will always have weapons, magazines, ammunition they are not allowed to own. They will always do whatever they can to make certain they are well armed with weapons and magazines . They steal these weapons from law abiding citizens, by robbing gun stores, and by trading drugs on the streets for weapons with other criminals.
Creating gun laws that make it illegal for law abiding citizens to own these same weapons the criminals have puts every law abiding citizen in danger. It puts families in danger.
Didnt read
If youre NOT IN JAIL, YOU HAVE 2A RIGHTS
IDGAF what a LOWER law says
Actually you’re wrong. The dude was arrested for weed …many times. And driving across county lines..he didn’t stop for the police.. probably because he was high. He was shot on the front lawn..so it was whoever was in the house.
You are 100% correct!
The Marshall is talking like this was a success. It's obvious they failed fatally to plan. The arrest warrant would have never allowed them to enter the house. What were they thinking? This is not an example of the best. This is an example of the worst. The best would have apprehended this man without a shot fired. The best would not have gone after him in his home. The best would have waited until he was observed outside of his house. There are too many things here that don't make sense. I would like to see the warrant in detail. who was the decision maker that decided to execute the warrant at the home?
So he shot all eight officers and no fire from the house
Kinda doesn’t make sense and we would like to see the officers body cameras
Like deer hunting never run upon your kill
Isn’t adding up
My prayers to the officers and families, and the communities, however, in my opinion, the suspect, who was known to carry weapons, wouldn't the safer approach have been, to, wait until the subject was mobile and out of the property ???
Television general..... Why does the AG smile while he gives his speech??????
The chief of police doesn’t know anything about guns! AR14 and AR15 . They are different styles of rifles!
So which one is it? 🙈🙈
So what, exactly, is an AR-14 rifle?
Cant blame the 2nd Amendment, if the officials weren't following it.. Sad thing. Poor officers putting their lives on the line, serving corrupt politicians's rules.
When your sick and tired of being sick and tired!!!
Prayers for all
This is a perfect example of the destructive tactics of law enforcement in this country. There should be no doubt in anyone's mind this destuctive incident did not need to occur. Four men died because of the methods these law enforcement people use. This did not have to happen. One man could have been taken into custody in any number of different ways.
@Joe-no7gsmilitary grade? What’s that?
In my county, accused murderers are let out on bail with an ankle monitor. One just got busted for DUI the other day, her third violation since being released! Another one was arrested for domestic violence. WhiskyTango Foxtrot?
@Joe-no7gs what military weapons were used? Only heard of 2 civilian weapons.
@Joe-no7gs I have an M1 Garand that's military-grade. The rest of my guns are better. Military-grade means made by the cheapest bidder to meet a specification. The AR-15 that was allegedly used is not military-grade as no military issues it. Likewise, the .40 pistol that was allegedly used is not used by the military.
What kind of arrest is that? How did they supposedly know he had a weapon? What's the other crime? Sometimes seem like the cops be on BS
Prayers for the families
Condolences to the families and friends of the officers.
What was the warrant for? Why where marshal their first and who sent them. I want to grieve with you but your not giving details
For a weapons warrant, ans a bench warrant.
They were there to take his guns away.
Prayers to all the Officers in this tragedy ❤ my heart goes out to all that were lost and all recovering God speed .
What brand of ar was it ?
Good question, stolen brand I'm thinking
How come you don't catch these guys when they go for their morning coffee at Wawa
An AR 14 you said 😂😂 so roughly 100 rounds were shot ?? Yeah ok Thats Nothing gimmie a break
Definately not a white male. That we know for sure.
Are white people for some reason feeling guilty to the point of keep saying it's a person of color without the facts..
