Devin Jamal Barron, 22, of Citra, Florida, died of gunshot wounds on September 10, 2016, at Ocala Regional Medical Center after being shot twice—once in the chest and once in the right arm—during an altercation at the home of Eugene Andre Clinton. Barron and his father had gone to Clinton’s residence to discuss an ongoing issue, and a physical confrontation followed. Clinton admitted to firing and surrendered the weapon to authorities.

Accounts of what happened diverge. Barron’s father says Clinton first brandished a pipe and a stick, prompting Barron to exit the vehicle; Clinton then discarded those items, produced a pistol, and shot Barron. Another witness said Barron had stabbed Clinton’s friend and that Barron and his father were the aggressors, with Barron striking Clinton with a wooden stick before Clinton fired. Clinton also had a head wound he said was inflicted by Barron and his father.

The Assistant State Attorney reviewed the evidence and concluded Clinton’s use of deadly force was justified under Florida’s Stand Your Ground law, and no charges were filed. Does anyone have additional information about the events leading up to the shooting or the people involved?
