Augusta, GA --
We have new information about the murder of Richmond County Sheriff's Office Deputy J.D. Paugh.

Deputies say Paugh was shot and killed early Sunday morning when he saw a suspicious situation on Bobby Jones Expressway.

Sheriff Ronnie Strength says, Fort Gordon student soldier Christopher Michael Hodges fired off 42 rounds and shot Deputy Paugh 9 times before shooting himself in the head. He also added that Paugh fired 3 shots, one of them hitting Hodges in the arm.

The Sheriff says Hodges was intoxicated the night of the shootings. Sources tell us that Hodges was ordered by the military to go through treatment for alcoholism, but his girlfriend tells a different story.

You've seen the the flags flying at half staff around town, you've heard the heartfelt interviews from Deputy J.D. Paughs friends and colleagues, but there is one story that has yet to be told.

Besides Deputy Paugh and suspect Christopher Hodges, Raven Harper was the only one there the night deputies say her boyfriend fired off 42 rounds from his m4 assault rifle...killing Paugh and himself.
