An armed Florida man who rushed to defend his sister from an abusive ex-boyfriend will face no charges after fatally shooting him, according to the local sheriff’s office.
“If someone points a gun at you and cocks it, you can shoot them,” Escambia County Sheriff Chip Simmons told WEAR News of the incident that unfolded last week.
Escambia County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a home within the Silver Lake Mobile Home Park last Tuesday and found an unidentified 26-year-old man dead from a gunshot wound, the sheriff’s office said in a news release.
Investigators said the man was the ex-boyfriend of a 24-year-old unidentified woman who lives in the home.
The man reportedly broke the woman’s door down, entered the home and struck her “several times,” according to the sheriff’s office.
