#BreakingNews: Ajike "AJ" Owens, a Black mother of four, was shot and killed in Ocala, Florida, by a white woman who was allegedly using racist slurs. The white woman hasn't been arrested or charged. https://t.co/vI0hUCYbaL
Ajike Owens’ children were playing in a field near an apartment complex when a white woman yelled racial slurs at them and said to get off her land.
The children left behind an iPad which she stole. When one of the children came back to retrieve it she threw it at him and hit him with it.
Owens knocked on the woman’s door and without even opening it she shot through the door, killing Ms. Owens.
