TL;DR Summary

Susan Louise Lorincz, a 58-year-old woman from Ocala, Florida, was arrested for manslaughter with a firearm, culpable negligence, battery, and two counts of assault in the death of 35-year-old A.J. Owens. Lorincz claimed that she acted in self-defense and that Owens had been trying to break down her door and that Owens had "come after her in the past." However, detectives were able to establish that Lorincz’s actions were not justifiable under Florida law. The incident began when Lorincz became angry that Owens' children were playing in a field close to her home. She then threw a skate at Owens' 10-year-old son, striking him on the foot. The boy and his 12-year-old brother went to Lorincz's door, and she opened and swung at them with an umbrella. The children went and told their mother, who then approached Lorincz's door, knocking multiple times and demanding Lorincz come outside. Officials say that's when Lorincz fired one shot through the door, striking Owens in her upper chest.
