THUG Charged with the Murder of a Forest Acres Police Officer waived his right to a bond hearing on Thursday
THUG Suspect, Jarvis Hall, 34, did not appear in court to answer to the murder charge lobbed against him in the death of Forest Acres police officer Greg Alia, 32.
Alia, was a 7-year veteran of the force. He was married and just had a baby boy with his wife, Kassy.
Police were called to Richland Mall just before 8 a.m. in regard to a suspicious person inside a vehicle. The suspect, identified as Jarvis Hall, 34, tried to flee the scene before shooting and killing Alia, Sealy said.
Authorities have charged Hall with murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime.
Hall, according to investigators, was approached by Alia and a second officer. Hall, officials said, got into a struggle with Alia, pulled out a gun, and fired on Alia.
The handgun that Hall used in the shooting "was reported stolen from Lexington County on or about September 2, 2015," according to an arrest warrant.
Officers with the Richland County Sheriff's Department, Columbia Police Department, Richland County EMS, and others agencies also responded to the shooting.
Jeanette Roach, a witness to the scene, saw officers arrive.
“They were very frantic, and they were trying to hurry, you know, getting here," Roach said. "And nothing was stopping them either, you know. They were coming wide open. It was really scary to see something like that. It was really scary."
A.C. Flora High School was also placed on a brief lockdown while officers investigated the scene, but that lockdown was lifted shortly after 9 a.m.
Officials have not detailed any type of charges against Hall. A criminal background check on Hall finds several other offenses, but mostly misdemeanor charges such as unlawful carrying of a weapon, failure to comply, and solicitation.
THUG HALL SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ON THE STREETS
