Wild footage circulating of a Beaufort County, SC, sheriff's deputy, wearing khakis with a black t-shirt and loafers plus tactical vest haphazardly slung over his body and unsecured, randomly walking up to a trio of teenage boys walking in their home neighborhood and threatening to kill them with his pistol as they scream for help for their mothers, with neighbors intervening as the camera cuts off. According to local reporting, the officer was intoxicated and approached the boys without his gear on while shouting at them and demanding to know who they were and where they lived, to which the boys ignored and kept walking, with the officer then grabbing his gear and gun and chasing them down the road. The officer has not been named but has been confirmed to be relieved of his badge by SLED. (9-28-25)
