2 charged with homicide after drug deal: Escambia County Sheriff’s Office

by: Summer Poole
ESCAMBIA COUNTY, Fla. (WKRG) — Deputies with the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office have arrested a man and woman after a drug deal ended with one person dead on Tuesday, July 2.

According to an ECSO Facebook post, deputies were called to the 100 block of Swallowtail Lane for a report of shots fired.

When they arrived, deputies found 26-year-old De’Andre English with a gunshot wound, and he was later pronounced dead by EMS, according to officials.

The investigation revealed that English, 24-year-old Demetrius Caesar, and 22-year-old Meliyah Gordon had allegedly gone to meet Issac Mitchell to buy marijuana from him.

When the three people arrived, Mitchell got into the vehicle, and during the sale, English allegedly pulled a gun on Mitchell to try and rob him.

Officials said there was a fight over the gun, which led to English being shot and killed. Gordon and Caesar then fled the scene, according to the post.

Caesar and Gordon were later found and charged with felony murder — a death occurring during the commission of a felony.

At the time of the shooting, Caesar was on probation for a previous felony murder that happened in 2018, according to the post.

Mitchell was not charged because “he appears to have acted in self-defense while being robbed.”

Drug charges against Mitchell are pending.

The Stupid is strong and everyone goes to jail. Except for Mr. English of course. Thanks, Gun Bunny.

‘Merica: Grocery Stores Selling Ammunition Out of Vending Machines in Alabama and Oklahoma

AWR HAWKINS
Some grocery stores in Alabama and Oklahoma now have American Rounds vending machines which allow customers to buy ammo for their guns while getting a cart full of groceries for their families.

Cleveland.com reported on the vending machines, noting they are currently in six locations and “[use] artificial intelligence technology to verify a buyer’s identification and age through card scanning and facial recognition software.”

One of the locations is a Fresh Value store in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

Terry Stanley, COO of the Fresh Value, said, “We’re always looking for ways to give our customers another reason to come visit our stores. Anything we can do to help them make their shopping trips easier, based on the feedback we’ve gotten from customers today, they are so excited about us having this ammo kiosk.”
