Just moments before he was fatally wounded in an unprovoked attack, a San Diego police officer performed one last act of kindness he bought a child food while buying his own dinner.
Jeremy Henwood, 36, stopped at the McDonald's in the 3800-block of Fairmount Avenue at 5:24 p.m. on Aug. 6. Surveillance video released Tuesday shows Henwood speaking with the boy and getting their food shortly before leaving the store at 5:27 p.m.
Shortly after 5:30 p.m., Henwood was shot while sitting inside his patrol car at the corner of University Avenue and 45th Street. Henwood had only made it six blocks from the McDonalds; it would be the last place he was seen alive.
Witnesses said a man pulled up on this side of Henwood's vehicle and shot him with a shotgun in what officials say was an unprovoked attack.
Henwood passed away at Scripps Mercy Hospital at 1:42 a.m. on Aug. 7.
Henwood, who served with SDPD for four years, was assigned to the Mid-City Division. He was also a Captain in the United States Marine Corps Reserves and had recently returned from deployment. During a memorial service in Point Loma on Aug. 12, Henwood was promoted to the rank of major.
The suspect in Henwood's shooting, whom police have identified as Dejon Marquee White, 23, was killed by police after a standoff outside a City Heights apartment building almost an hour after Henwood was shot.

And mine is an honest opinion. I truly believe ... honestly ... that police are oxygen-theives ... in other words

@Bigmanghs03 ... Soldiers are nothing like police ... don't even speak about them in the same sentence ... a soldier is one of the most honourable professions and roles on the planet ... to compare the two shows how little you know about either role.

@smashnbrawl ... so typical of police and their supporters ... to claim jealously lol ... give me one reason that ANYONE has to be jealous of hyprocrites? Their guns maybe? I have guns, more than most police ... maybe I'm jealous of their power ... nope ... there's alllllll kinds of power in this world and I crave none, nor am I lacking existing versions of it ... what else is there?
Tell me what exactly us anti-police commentators are jealous of and watch how you betray your true agenda ...

@oODarkEnergyOo I don't watch CSI. I've lived with cops, hanged out with cops and worked with cops. They're (the ones I've met) are the exact opposite of what you have said. You have such closed views that you assume from your own side that all cops are bad. There are bad cops and there are amazing cops. He (the guy on this video) is honored because he did something that is not expected out of cops nowadays because most people make them look like they're the evil ones. You are obviously jealous.

@Arsenio108 no one ever said he was Jesus, but would you have done it? I don't think so. This cop did something nice for someone and yet people will still talk bad about him
Very prejudice of people that do this
