    Video shows North Carolina good Samaritan shooting at carjacker before being run over by stolen truck

    The shocking incident of a carjacking turned deadly in North Carolina has left a community in mourning. A good Samaritan, identified as 38-year-old Jonathan Adam Lecompte, lost his life after confronting suspect Ricky Driggers in a crowded parking lot outside a Burger King restaurant.

    In a graphic video that emerged online over the weekend, Lecompte can be seen trying to stop Driggers from stealing his work truck, with a gun drawn. Despite Lecompte’s warnings, Driggers ignores him, gets into the truck, and drives off as Lecompte opens fire. The suspect then reverses through the parking lot, before speeding back towards Lecompte and another man standing in the lane.

    Tragically, Lecompte is struck head-on with his own truck, thrown into the air, and dragged across a grassy field. Driggers then attempts to flee the scene but is later arrested after crashing the stolen truck on Highway 41. Lecompte succumbed to his injuries at the hospital.

    Driggers now faces a slew of charges, including first-degree murder, larceny of a motor vehicle, attempted robbery, and fleeing arrest. This incident has shocked the community and serves as a reminder of the dangers that can arise from acts of violence and crime.
