Florida Woman Arrested and Charged with Manslaughter After Fatal Shooting of Black Neighbor

A 58-year-old white woman has been arrested and charged with manslaughter with a firearm and other offenses, after fatally shooting her 35-year-old Black neighbor in Ocala, Florida. The incident has put Florida's divisive "stand your ground law" back in the spotlight, and has become the latest flashpoint over race and gun violence in the United States. About three dozen mostly Black protesters gathered outside the Marion County Judicial Center to demand that the shooter be arrested. Lorincz is currently being held in the Marion County Jail.
