MACRO by Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid (October 7, 2014) STATE OF GEORGIA (CAMILLA) NEIGHBORHOOD MAN FOUGHT BACK---INMAN. CAMILLA, GA (WALB) - Russell Florence is out of jail tonight and telling us the G-B-I isnt telling the whole story. Florence admits he got into a fight, but he says the other man cut him with a knife and pulled a gun and didnt get charged because hes a police officer. Florence was picking up his son at the Walker Homes complex Wednesday when he got upset with off-duty Camilla police officer Travis Green. They got into a fight and Florence says Green pulled out a pocket knife and stabbed him in the abdomen. He says Green took his keys and belongings from his car and threw them on top of a neighbors home then got a gun from his car and began chasing Florence down Inman Lane. Im the one being charged with terroristic acts and threats and assault, but hes the one who really did the assault. Hes the one who really had the weapon. Hes the one that chased me. I engaged afterwards, I was in defense to leave by being chased by officer Green in this act, said Florence. One neighbor told me she say Green throw Florences items on her roof. Florence says Green has harassed him in the past and hes complained to Camilla city leaders about it. GBI Agent Steve Turner told me they dont have evidence to back up Florences story, and they did speak to witnesses who say Florence started the altercation and thats why hes the only one who was arrested, according to Shannon Wiggins WALB NEWS AOL (AOL, 2014; WALB, 2014; Wiggins, 2014) Go to: walb
