Owens was shot and killed last Friday in Ocala, Florida on the doorstep of the suspect's home, after she went to the suspect's residence to question the unidentified woman about an alleged dispute with Owens' children, according to police reports.
Marion County sheriff Billy Woods held a press conference earlier on Monday. Woods said no arrests had been made yet because his department had to follow due process under Florida Stand Your Ground laws. Woods said there was an ongoing feud between Owens and the suspect, and there was a heated confrontation between the two before the shooting.
Lorincz allegedly threw a pair of skates at the child and the minor notified Owens, resulting in Owens going to the suspect's home, according to Woods. Woods said more than one of Owens' children may have witnessed the shooting. The children have not been interviewed yet out of respect for the trauma of losing their mother, according to Woods.
