Jacksonville Officer Shoots Man in Leg While Removing His Gun

* (Disclaimer: The content in this video is intended for educational and informational purposes only) Jacksonville, Florida — On December 13th, 2024, Police Officer S. Lowry conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle operated by 39-year-old Jason Arrington for running a red light. Officers A. Weippert and M. Cardwell responded to assist on the traffic stop. Arrington, who was cooperative during the traffic stop, informed Officer Lowry that he was armed with a firearm. Officer Lowry directed Arrington to exit his vehicle, and he cooperated. Officer Cardwell then attempted to remove the firearm from the waist of Arrington. While Officer Cardwell was attempting to remove the firearm, it discharged, striking Arrington in the leg. The bullet struck Arrington in his upper thigh and came out his inner thigh on his right side. The other officers tell Cardwell to put the gun down, and then they immediately call for paramedics, help Arrington onto the grass and administer a tourniquet to stop the bleeding in his leg. Arrington said the gunshot wound left him with lasting physical impairments that affected his ability to work as a crane operator. The Internal Affairs investigation resulted in a sustained charge of incompetence against Officer Cardwell and JSO has begun termination proceedings for Officer Cardwell. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Special thanks to Shout-Out Supporters on Patreon: - 'DIY Solar Power with Will Prowse' - Gavan - Connor Polich - Cody Stephens - Kaedyn - Daniel G - David, Guershom - 'K9 Kampers with Alfredo' - 'BalloonDwarf4131' - 'quadrakyiro' - Troy Polansky - Scott Mackin - "John B.
