Mayo. Somehow, convicted felon, Jeffrey Tyrone Savage, got on the base with his truck. He proceeded to the USS Mahan, took the weapon of a petty officer. PO2 Mayo then took a bullet from that gun protecting the disarmed petty officer with his own body while discharging his weapon at Savage possibly killing Savage.<\/p>\n<p>So what Savage was doing on the base, is still a question as are his motivations for the altercation which resulted in his death. It seems Savage had a record, but then, so do all of these gunmen lately;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Savage was convicted of voluntary manslaughter in Mecklenburg County, N.C., and released from prison Dec. 30, 2009, records showed.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>Savage was also sentenced in Virginia in 1998 for possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine. He served nearly five years in federal prison before transferring to a halfway house and home confinement in the Raleigh, N.C., area, according to Chris Burke, a spokesman for the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Savage also spent two years in federal prison beginning in 2010 after his supervision was revoked and was transferred to a halfway house in February 2012, Burke said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NBCWashington tells the story of the shooting at Norfolk Naval Base the other day and the &hellip; <a title=\"Petty Officer 2nd Class Mark A.
