JACKSONVILLE, FL — A mother who was shot at her work Friday morning has died from her injuries.
Police say Floacia Brookins was shot as she walked into work at Crowley in Talleyrand around 6 a.m. Friday.
Investigators say the man who shot her killed himself during a standoff at a home on the Northside Friday afternoon.
The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office says SWAT teams found James Lawson Williams III, dead of a gunshot wound in the home on Oaklawn Road, which is near Dunn Avenue and Armsdale Road.
Williams had barricaded himself inside the home for several hours following the shooting of his ex-girlfriend in Talleyrand.
A witness told a friend that he saw a man drive into the parking lot where he started arguing with a woman before shooting her.
