Dozens of Alabama law enforcement officers lined the hallways of UAB Hospital to honor slain Bibb County Deputy Brad Johnson as his body was transported to the organ donation center.
“Today, all of Alabama grieves the loss of one of our heroes in blue, Bibb County Deputy Brad Johnson. At only 32 years-old, he served in law enforcement for several years and was engaged to be married,’’ said Gov. Kay Ivey.“He will not only be called a hero for protecting his community, but also through his organ donations,’’ Ivey said.
District Attorney Michael Jackson said the Bibb County Sheriff’s deputies were chasing 26-year-old Austin Patrick Hall, a convicted felon with a lengthy criminal history, in a stolen vehicle when the suspect got out and fired shots, striking both deputies. Hall, who has been arrested on at least 46 charges since he was 17, is being held without bond on the Shelby County Jail. Jackson said Hall is charged with two counts of capital murder and one count of attempted murder. He is set to be arraigned on Friday morning.“It’s been said that a coward dies a thousand deaths, but a hero but one,’’ Sheriff Wade said Thursday. “Brad Johnson was a hero.”
