In a matter of seconds, Tennessee Highway Patrol Sgt. Rex Bailey learned three things while standing on Interstate 75 in Campbell County the night of Oct. 21, 2021. MORE: https://bit.ly/3KxXfQQ

There'd just been a robbery at a Jacksboro pharmacy. The suspect was heading Bailey's way on Interstate 75 northbound in a silver Subaru. And the robber had a gun.

Bailey was originally on the interstate to help a trucker whose tractor-trailer broke down. As he was directing traffic around, dispatchers and colleagues squawked over his radio that a robbery suspect, 34-year-old Michael Hilton of Sanford, N.C., was barreling in the dark through traffic and slamming into other motorists to force his way through the jammed construction zone, and he was coming right to Bailey.

This body camera footage taken from Bailey's perspective shows the deadly encounter that unfolded in a matter of seconds, which ended in a hail of gunfire from officers that ended Hilton's life. Authorities provided a censored version of the footage that blurred graphic imagery and muted audio of strong language and conversations that contained redacted information.
