Lee County, AL. A Lee County grand jury has cleared Officer Jared Greer in an officer-involved shooting that happened in late 2015.

The Lee County District Attorney's office released the dashboard camera video of the incident on Wednesday afternoon.

The grand jury found no fault with Officer Greer's actions on the night of Oct. 31, 2015 during an attempted traffic stop, when Greer shot and killed 56-year old Bennie Tignor along Comancee Drive.

Officer Greer's dashcam video takes us back to the rainy night when he tried to pull over Tignor after a slow, seven-minute pursuit

Opelika police have stated that Tignor failed to comply with a traffic stop, resisted arrest, then brandished a gun before he was shot and killed by the officer.

Tignor's family believe the circumstances around his death were suspicious.

Investigators say the gun Tignor pulled on Officer Greer was recovered at the scene.

This month, after reviewing the video and the SBI's independent investigation, a grand jury found no fault with Officer Greer's actions and cleared him of any wrongdoing.

We are still waiting for a statement from Tignor's family.

Opelika Mayor Gary Fuller tells Officer Greer has not been back on duty since he was cleared; however, the mayor does expect him to return to his patrol duties in the near future.

The State Bureau of Investigations conducted an independent investigation. The case, including the dash cam video, was presented to the grand jury.

The video has only been seen by a handful of police and city officials then the grand jury.

Decided to post the whole vid but after 6.20 the real action starts.

Glad they released this. Fuckin' idiot deserved what he got. One less arsehole in the world. I'm sure if he'd carried on living he would have had a "victim" at some point, being an arrogant, drunk driver with an attitude of "fuck the law". His family are probably after $.

Suicide by stupidness. Case closed and good riddance.

Hmm.. The only apparent fault I can see is the response of the second officer. I'm just wondering where he was and what he was doing the entire time this incident was going on. Did he just arrive at the scene or was he the other officer's partner?

I'll just assume he arrived at the scene but that was awfully fast if that was the case.

nice. using driver as a racial slur. been a while since Ive seen our favorite Gang in town get their rocks off compensating for the lack of perceived agency in their lives through taking the life of someone. With any hope they come home to murdered families. Fuck cops.
