Decatur, Illinois — On October 12, 2022, at around 12:30 am, Decatur Police Officers conducted a traffic stop of a subject (32-year-old Jamontey O. Neal) believed to be in possession of a firearm. Neal had two guns in the car with him. One was underneath of him. Decatur police said, that is the one he reached for before opening fire on the officers, shooting and wounding two of the officers. One video shows Decatur Police Sgt. Timothy Wittmer’s hair being ruffled by a passing bullet and the officer falling to the ground as he is hit multiple times. His semi-automatic service pistol jams as he lays on the rain-soaked pavement and he quickly clears it before opening fire and appearing to empty his magazine at Neal who collapses, his body twitching with bullet impacts.

Four police officers had returned fire at Neal: three Decatur officers and Macon County Sheriff’s Deputy Travis Wolfe. During the incident, officers returned fire, shooting Neal. Neal was struck multiple times. Neal later died at a local hospital. Sgt. Wittmer was shot multiple times during this incident. He was shot in the hand which required surgery. He was also shot in the foot and the left posterior area, but a titanium wallet stopped that bullet. He had fragment injuries on his head. Officer Bowman was shot one time in the lower abdomen during this incident. It was a “through and through” wound. Both Sgt. Wittmer and Ofc. Bowman have been released from the hospital and are recovering. They remain on leave while the fatal shooting is investigated by the Illinois State Police, which is standard procedure.

  1. I dunno, man. The multiple head shots were a bit much. I get that the guy just took at least two…but…one head shot is enough, don't waste ammo…

  2. absolutely. absolutely. absolutely. absolutely. absolutely. absolutely. absolutely. absolutely. absolutely. absolutely.

  3. Every officer involved shooting should go down like this. Dude showed clear intent to kill them no question about it

  4. You see a gun shoot me…

    Request granted and achievement unlocked for that fool… The room temperature achievement that is.

    Glad none of the officers took that one

  5. Officer Ryan Ricker you were in the best place to eliminate the threat, his back was completely to you and you shot once, missed then ran for dear life and left your downed buddy to fend for himself and he almost got killed. Coward.

  6. Can I just say if a citizen where to shoot someone that many time they will say it is over kill…but it's okay for them to do it …….. uhhh ok

  7. it's so great to see the officer on the ground shooting back as many times as possible. brave man.

  8. "I aint did nuttin" translates to 'I am about to reach for a gun.." or "I am about to run.." in english. These officers clearly understood the language and did a great job in those circumstances. Very brave men doing this job and so very glad they have recovered.

  9. Another scum bag pos assumes room temperature 👏👏👏 Hoping for a speedy recovery for the officer(s)

  10. Eliminating the threat perfectly. Other officers were a bit panicked and unsure, but cop who cleared the jam eliminated the threat. Don't stop just because he's down. Not after he just shot you multiple times.

    Don't take the chance.

    If he's still near his gun, finish the mag.

  11. Amazing job from officer Wittmer. Shot multiple times, on the ground, and he still clears a jam and puts down the threat. Unfortunately, he made several tactical mistakes leading up to the shooting. He got in the way of Bowman (flagging him in the process), and then took his eyes off the suspect to holster his weapon. This could probably have been avoided if the officers had went hands on more aggressively.

  12. Jamontey Neal was convicted of a homicide in 2010 when he shot a 20 year old named Christopher Beasley, he was sentenced to 15 years. Wonder how long he'd been out?

  13. It turns out by far the most violent encounters with police are from young black men, and disproportionately so. It’s time we admit this fact openly and freely and without fear of retribution or getting cancelled by the naive ‘do-gooders’ and the woke

  14. The streets are truly a bit safer thanks to them. My favorite part is 1:10 watching how that scumbag gets repeatedly shot once on the ground. It was almost orgasmic.

  15. Got a new writer? lol

  16. 4:30 suspect starts shooting his gun at the officers. and this officer who's right behind him with his gun drawn just screams and doesn't shoot and run away. wtf????????????
