Lee County Sheriff's deputy has
died of injuries suffered in the line of duty. Anderson
was rushed to Columbus Medical Center around 1:00pm Thursday in
critical condition. He died a short time later.
The man accused of running him down with a car, 31-year-old
Gregory Lance Henderson of Columbus, Georgia is being held in
the Russell County Jail. He now faces one count of Capital
Murder. The officer's death came after a routine traffic
stop on Lee Road 240 just inside Smiths Station. Investigators
say Anderson and another deputy followed Henderson's vehicle
into a residential driveway.
When Anderson attempted to make contact with the driver, the
suspect stepped on the gas and pinned the officer under his car.
The other officer, uninjured, pulled Henderson from his car and
arrested him on the spot. Medics and other law enforcement
officers arrived on the scene within minutes and worked to free
the trapped officer.
Deputy James Anderson is survived by a wife, daughter and son.
