Friends and family will protest deputy killing of innocent Leesburg man

By Erica Rodriguez, Orlando Sentinel

Friends, family and likely some customers of the Leesburg pizza delivery man shot by deputies this week will gather downtown Tavares to demand answers from law enforcement Thursday.

About 1:30 a.m. Sunday, a Lake County Sheriff's deputy shot and killed 26-year-old Andrew Lee Scott after he opened the door to his apartment armed with a gun. Deputies were on the hunt for attempted murder suspect Jonathan Brown, 31, who allegedly severely beat a man and fled the scene on a motorcycle within the same hour. Deputies saw the motorcycle parked in front of Scott's apartment and knocked on his door without announcing themselves expecting to find Brown. A Sheriff's Office spokesman said Scott pointed the gun at the three deputies and one deputy responded with deadly force. Brown was later found in a nearby building and arrested.

Brian Evey, Scott's friend and manager at Hungry Howie's Pizza, said the group wants to know why the deputy shot and killed Scott and more about the deputies' decision that night not to announce their presence.

At 1:30 in the morning, they are on the hunt?

Only scum would come banging on your door on 1:30am,
or someone in trouble.

Of course he answers the door with protection.

Now they kill ya for protecting yourself.

Protect and Serve the People

Don't open your door at 1:30 am, call Police!

Let intruders break in, Than protect yourself.

i agree with the last poster. Let them kick the door in then, protect yourself. i learned a long time ago that ,if you accidentally draw on a cop,whatever you do, do not lower your weapon because, they will shoot you anyway. If you have a gun you may as well start blazing because, again they aren't going to ask questions until they've shot you. It's very unfortunate but, the police have built this fear with their tactics. The sad part is when people began to do like the cops and shoot first and a few cops die they will only make examples of those people in court instead of changing policy.
