He was in a stolen car when police tried to stop him. He abandoned that car and fled to a neighborhood, where he tried to steal another car.
Then she said her neighbor, Don – the homeowner who the suspect is accused of attempting to carjack– shot him.
“So, when he starts coming towards him, Don says ‘Stop’ because the guy already told him he was going to kill him and so Don shot him.”
He only shot the (alleged) bad guy in the leg, but that did let the cops take him into custody.
As for the neighbors...
“It’s very shocking,” neighbor K.P. Lancaster said.
“It’s been a day and I’m sorry that it happened, and I’m sorry it happened it here,” neighbor Sheryl Anglin said.
No matter how nice your house is, you are not protected by your zip code from crime. It must shocking to realize that you do live in The Real World™ where crime can, and often does, happen.
The cops are continuing to investigate, and then the DA will make any determination on charges. I have no idea what the DA in Jacksonville is like when it comes to questions of self defense. If you know, please leave a comment.
