NBC2 obtained the witness videos from the good Samaritan fatal shooting of Edward Strother, the man who attacked a Lee County deputy near Corkscrew Road.

A single photo of the incident shed light on just how serious it was. Deputy Dean Bardes believed Strother was armed but was pinned to the ground.

The newly released cell phone videos show exactly what witnesses saw that November morning....

It seriously Sickens me that there are plenty of people willing to sit there an record, yet only ONE willing to get out and help the officer. I'm glad he did what he did, and glad the officer is alive. Need more people like that, less stand by and film.

Wow.

No 911 calls. Lots of video and people shouting to each other. Only one person tried to assist the police officer.

I'm not sure what I'd have done if I saw that. I'd hope that I'd at least call 911 and then continue to at least yell at the bad guy from a safe distance distract him and give the cop a chance....if that was NY. I'd be no help in a hand-to-hand melee with anyone the size of this bad guy.
