FL: Permit Holder Shoots Hit and Run Driver

The incident unfolded Tuesday around 1:15 a.m. when police say Keevon G. Smith was driving a Ford Explorer through the parking lot at the Broadmoore Apartments, 8700 N. 50th St. Police say Smith struck and damaged a blue Ford Fusion owned by Tyrone Lee Walker, 26, and then fled the scene.

The escape didn’t go off without a hitch, however. Walker spotted the crash and was able to get into another vehicle to follow the Explorer south on North 50th Street. He was able to confront Smith, police wrote in an email to media, when the Explorer stopped in the roadway.

“Smith tried to hit the victim with his SUV while Walker was attempting to exchange information with him,” police said. “Walker, who has a concealed weapons permit, shot at Smith while he was running out of the moving vehicle’s way in order to defend himself.”
