Adeem Berry, 14, is facing felony charges of Murder in the Second Degree With a Weapon, Attempted Murder in the First Degree Premeditated Firearm – Discharge, Aggravated Assault With Deadly Weapon.
The Sheriff’s office is also releasing body-worn camera footage of the tense moments when deputies contacted Berry, as he threatened to take his own life with a gun.
“It is incredible to see the deputies in this video remain calm, build a rapport with the young suspect, and talk him down from hurting himself or anyone else,” said Sheriff Chad Chronister.
“This is a testament to the deputies’ training and knowledge and use of the de-escalation tools they’ve been given. They work, and they save lives.”
