LEESBURG, Fla. — Leesburg police are searching for a man accused of shooting and killing his ex-girlfriend’s current boyfriend Sunday morning, officers said.
Jeremy Harrison, 25, shot and killed the 25-year-old man at a home in the Royal Oaks Estates on Willow Drive around 9:15 a.m., police said.
Amanda Ventura lives on the other side of the complex from where the shooting took place with her husband and two kids. She said she was stunned by the news.
"Most of the people here keep to themselves," she said. "They're very quiet and they're very polite. That's just unreal."
Police have not yet identified the victim of the shooting, who was transported to Leesburg Regional Medical Center before succumbing to his injuries.
Police believe Harrison fled the home in a white Hyundai Azera with Miami Dolphins tag D8BUU.
"That is scary because it's very unsettling. You don't know where he could be," said Ventura.
Officers are actively searching for Harrison and urge anyone with information to contact the Police Department at 352-787-2121.
