On Dec. 25, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office responded to the Pine Hills neighborhood regarding the shooting of a teen girl.
Emony Nicole Jackson, 13, was located and transported to the hospital, where she later died, authorities said. OCSO said a 15-year-old boy approached deputies at the scene and told them he was “responsible for the shooting” and that it was “accidental,” according to the sheriff’s office. The teen was arrested and faces a charge of manslaughter, deputies said.
It’s not known how or if Jackson and the suspect knew each other.
Breden Watkins, 17 was found on El Campo Avenue in Deltona with multiple gunshot wounds on Dec. 25. Deputies said despite attempting life-measures, Watkins died at the scene.
