A Black mother of four in Florida was killed by a white neighbor who shot her through a front door as the victim attempted to retrieve an iPad taken from her child
......
Billy Woods, the Marion county sheriff ...... telling reporters that the shooting appeared to be the culmination of a feud between the neighbors. Woods added that deputies had been called to the address “six to eight” times in two and a half years.
......
The incident occurred as several children were playing on the grass in front of a duplex building at the development, according to neighbors who spoke to the Ocala Star-Banner. A female resident emerged from one of the units, they said, threw something towards the children, scooped up an iPad and retreated inside.
One of the children told Owens what happened, the neighbor said, and she went to the woman’s door.
“She confronted her and, according to the one side, there was a lot of aggressiveness from both of them, back and forth, whether it be banging on the doors, banging on the walls and threats being made,” Woods said.
“And then, at that moment, it’s when Mrs Owens was shot through the door.”
