On Monday, Sept, 29, many in Beaufort, S.C. woke to a now-viral video being shared across social media that, for many in the comments, caused shock and anger.

The video showed a man, who we now know is an off-duty deputy with the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office (BCSO), approaching several young teenage boys while pointing his gun at them and screaming for them to get on the ground.
