Winston-Salem, NC - Winston-Salem Police Sergeant Mickey Hutchens has died from injuries he sustained during a shootout with a suspect last week.

Police chief Scott Cunningham made the announcement during a press conference on Monday night.

A spokesperson with the City of Winston-Salem said Hutchens condition began to deteriorate on October 10. A neurosurgeon at Baptist Hospital previously said Hutchens was "critical" and "grave" condition, according to police.

Hutchens was responding to a robbery alarm at the Bojangles' on Peters Creek Parkway with Officer Daniel Clark when they saw Monte Evans run behind the building. The officers chased Evans into the nearby creek. That's when Evans pulled out a semi-automatic handgun and shot Hutchens in the face.

Evans then pulled the gun on Clark, shooting him in the torso and near the neckline. Clark returned fired, killing Evans. Investigators later revealed that Evan was at the restaurant to see his ex-wife

Clark was released from the hospital two days later. He is still recovering from his injuries.

Hutchens was with the Winston-Salem Police Department for 27 years. He is survived by his wife and their two daughters.

Hutchens was 18 months from retiring. God Speed Sargent and to your family.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
