GREENVILLE CO, SC SHERIFFS SHOOTING

GREENVILLE COUNTY, SC (WSPA) – Greenville County Sheriff’s Office officials released body camera footage following a deputy-involved incident that happened last month.

In the released video from the sheriff’s office, officials said deputies were conducting surveillance in an unmarked vehicle in the area of Long Forest Drive on July 11 at around 5 p.m.

Sheriff’s Office officials said the purpose of the surveillance was to locate and to apprehend Michael Joseph Culberton, 26, who had multiple active warrants for his arrest.

Those active warrants stemmed from incidents on June 27 and July 10, and including warrants for resisting arrest, failure to stop for blue lights, interfering with police and reckless driving.

On July 10, deputies reportedly responded to a home on Blake Street after receiving a call about Culbertson reportedly causing a disturbance.

According to the video, family members told deputies Culbertson made comments saying he was not going to jail, and said he was recently in possession of a firearm.
