Police are claiming there is a long standing feud between Owens and the white woman(unidentified) who shot her. Waiting for more information before stating my opinion.The fatal shooting of Ajike “AJ” Owens unfolded on Friday (June 2) after one of her children accidentally left their iPad in a field they were playing in near an apartment complex in Ocala, according to civil rights attorney Ben Crump, who is representing the family.
Crump said a white neighbor, who hasn't been identified, called the children racial slurs and yelled at the children to "get off her land." The woman took the tablet that was left behind by Owen's child, according to Crump.
When the child went back to retrieve his iPad, Crump said the woman threw the device, which hit the boy and cracked the screen. Owens went to the neighbor's door after her child told her what happened.
“She knocked on the door, and at that point, the woman allegedly shot through the door, hitting AJ, who later died from her injuries,” Crump said.
