krome2ez Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Officer Jeremy Henwood's Final Act of Kindness He was shot just moments after. By Lindsay Hood and Joseph MD Young | Wednesday, Aug 17, 2011 Surveillance video shows the last moments of the officer's life. Just moments before he was fatally wounded in an unprovoked attack, a San Diego police officer performed one last act of kindness; he bought a child food while buying his own dinner. Jeremy Henwood, 36, stopped at the McDonald's in the 3800-block of Fairmount Avenue at 5:24 p.m. on Aug. 6. Surveillance video released Tuesday shows Henwood speaking with the boy and getting their food shortly before leaving the store at 5:27 p.m. Shortly after 5:30 p.m., Henwood was shot while sitting inside his patrol car at the corner of University Avenue and 45th Street. Henwood had only made it six blocks from the McDonalds; it would be the last place he was seen alive. Witnesses said a man pulled up on this side of Henwood’s vehicle and shot him with a shotgun in what officials say was an unprovoked attack. Henwood passed away at Scripps Mercy Hospital at 1:42 a.m. on Aug. 7. Henwood, who served with SDPD for four years, was assigned to the Mid-City Division. He was also a Captain in the United States Marine Corps Reserves and had recently returned from deployment. During a memorial service in Point Loma on Aug. 12, Henwood was promoted to the rank of major. The suspect in Henwood’s shooting, whom police have identified as Dejon Marquee White, 23, was killed by police after a standoff outside a City Heights apartment building almost an hour after Henwood was shot.

We do not know what our final act will be. Lets hope that when we are remembered it is for good things and that we were a positive influence in someones life. I feel so bad for his family and friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
