A Fayetteville police officer said her taser malfunctioned during a Thanksgiving Day traffic stop where a police officer shot and killed a motorist, according to newly released police radio traffic.

Demarcus Brodie, 49, was pronounced dead following the shooting in the 2000 block of Murchison Road about 4:30 p.m. on Nov. 23.

Police say Brodie assaulted officers who attempted to detain him during a traffic stop. The reason for the traffic stop has not been revealed.

At a news conference the following day, Police Chief Kemberle Braden said Officer Dillion Hoke, with the department since 2016, was the shooter. Braden said Hoke was placed on administrative leave and the State Bureau of Investigation was conducting a probe into the incident.

On Friday, the Fayetteville Police Department denied repeated requests for information on Hoke’s status, stating it was not a public record under state law. That contention appears to be in direct conflict with the state Public Record statute and the department’s announcement that Hoke was on leave.

Friday afternoon, city spokesperson Loren Bymer confirmed Hoke remains on paid administrative leave.

Murchison Road was shut down in the area by 4:43 p.m., the record indicates.
