According to McVicar, he was alone inside his vehicle doing undercover surveillance in relation to the drug conspiracy investigation when Felton tried to rob him at gunpoint, forcing him to open fire through the closed car window, striking Felton in the face. However it remains unclear whether McVicar was on or off duty that night. There was no physical evidence showing he worked that day. There was no timesheet. There was no dispatch, Barnett told Truthout. McVicar was driving his personal vehicle, a red Toyota Tacoma, which happened to be covered in bumper stickers celebrating gun ownership and conservative politics, things that we felt went to his state of mind and character, said Barnett. But the judge would not allow it. IM THE GOD-FEARING, GUN-TOTING, FLAG-WAVING CONSERVATIVE YOU WERE WARNED ABOUT, says one sticker. Even more damning is that McVicar did not immediately report the shooting. Instead, he reported that shots were fired in a different location, where there had been no shooting. Between 20 to 30 minutes passed before McVicar reported that Felton had been shot, during which time Felton received no medical attention. They did not think that this kid was going to live, said Barnett. And perhaps they did not want him to.
