Nothing but bad news comes out of that place and it definitely doesn't seem to be no place for blacks. Man was shot in his driveway while trying to get a cigarette. Roy Middleton was trying to get a cigarette out of his mother’s car, when local deputies shot him. In retrospect, lying in a hospital bed, all he could think was why did that happen. Around 2am on Saturday, Roy Middleton, 60, was seen in the driveway of his own home looking in his mother’s car for a loose cigarette. A neighbor saw him and must have mistook him for a burglar trying to break into the car, calling 911. He had been bent over in his search when he heard a voice behind him commanding him to put his hands where they could see them. Roy Middleton initially thought someone was just joking with him and turned to see who it was, only to find it was a group of deputies standing halfway into the driveway. He did as he was told, backing out with his hands up, and as he turned around, they opened fire. The man shot in his driveway said he felt like he was on the receiving end of a firing squad as he was shot in the leg. A teenage girl who witnessed part of the incident said that from what she saw, Roy Middleton hadn’t done anything to antagonize the deputies. As it is, the deputies involved in the shooting from the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office have been placed on paid administrative leave. The Sheriff’s Office declined to comment on the situation. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is investigating. Roy Middleton, the man shot in his driveway, was quoted as saying, “I’m just glad they didn’t hit me [in the head or chest]. My mother’s car is full of bullet holes though. My wife had to go and get a rental.”
I was just wanting for somebody to use this GIF. I left Polk County 23 years ago, best thing i've ever done.
How terrifying for him. I mean, I've gone to my car sooo many times at all hrs of the night or before dawn, if a trigger-happy male cop's voice came at me like that while my head is looking for something, I'd probably scream in fright and be shot. I hope Mr. Middleton sues the pants off them silly and he can retire very comfortably.
.....I second that !.....And business has never been better for me with the rotten people living in Florida.....they all seem to need my services......again, go figure.....
I do. Only it tends to be full of creating new and untried porn scenes and how to mix up delectable body desserts to nom after the main course. Which is nommed first. Lots of nomming going on in my beautiful mind.
A lot of this stuff seems to happen in the part of FL that is the Deep South. I live in the North Caribbean part, and I feel way safer than in MO, IL or IN.
Ding, ding, ding!!!! Well for street crime and over-zealous police, yes. However, the states in general for retrograde racial attitudes. We also have hot-blooded female officers, too. Lol
