A Florida mom was shot and killed over the weekend after confronting a neighbor who reportedly confronted the woman's children amid a long-standing "neighborhood feud," Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods told reporters on Monday.
"We know that this has basically been a neighborhood feud over time," Woods said. He said the sheriff's office had received about a half-dozen 911 calls from Owns and the neighbor. "I wish our shooter would have called us instead of taking action into her own hands. I wish Mrs. Owens would have called in the hopes we could've never gotten to the point at which we are here today," Woods said, adding that he also feels for the children, who lost their mom.
During a news conference at New St. John Missionary Baptist Church, attorney Anthony Thomas opened with remarks before introducing family members and friends of Owens as well as community leaders.
