Montague County Sheriff's Office Releases Dashcam Video of Deputy Boyd Being Shot

In a matter of seconds, a traffic stop two months ago by a Montague County Sheriff's Deputy takes a horrific turn. Today, the Montague County Sheriff's Office has released the dashcam video of that shooting at the request of KFDX.

This video is graphic, so we do want to make sure you are aware you're about to see a deputy being shot.

The video was taken by 27-year old Deputy James Boyd's dashcamera on March 21.

It shows Boyd pulling over a black Cadillac with Colorado license plates on Highway 287 in Bowie at Highway 59.

As the deputy bends down to speak with the driver through the passenger side window he is suddenly shot by convicted felon Evan Ebel. It is believed three shots were fired.

Two bullets strike his bullet proof vest. The third grazes his forehead. The video shows Boyd on the ground as several cars pass by until one vehicle pulls over which was driven by an off duty Johnson County Sheriff's Detective.

That detective assists Boyd and radios for help.

Boyd is now undergoing out-patient rehab at a Dallas area rehabilitation center.

FYI: In 2011 got a case of Ramsay Hunt Shingles. This type is not your common every day shingle. It starts in your inner ear canal and usually spreads onto your face. Well, in my case they developed on my face and then served up the big surprise when it went into my brain. I now have Spinal Cerebellar Ataxia another rare disease so rare that the Social Security Administration has it listed as a Compasionate case. Once you are diagnosed disability steps in within months. The disease takes over the co-ordination of your body, the brain isn't communicating with the legs, arms, and the list goes on... Look at my website www.randyriderandassociates.com for more information. I was set to make a lot of money as a consultant I was working on a Federal Grant. Instead I went from a normal 56 year old man to a 57 year old man with a cane and a walker in a year and now I am on disability. The reason I send you this little speech is that you can do something for yourself and your family. If you have not had a shingles vaccination git r done. Also, if you are my age and you have a large collection of anything "thin" the herd don't leave a mess for your family to figure out.
