Joshua Myers, 37, of Bushnell, Florida, was shot and killed the night of December 15, 2018. The shooting occurred about 9:30 p.m. at a residence on County Road 647 in the Nobleton area of Bushnell after Myers forced his way into the home following a drug dispute earlier that day. Resident Michael Donzero, 39, shot Myers multiple times; Myers was taken to Bayonet Point Medical Center and pronounced dead on arrival.

The Sumter County Sheriff’s Office opened an investigation and worked with the State Attorney’s Office to determine whether the shooting fell under Florida’s Stand Your Ground law. Residents of the home, including Donzero, cooperated and said Myers had entered the house aggressively. The case raises questions about the application of self-defense law in a forced-entry confrontation.

Did anyone in the Nobleton area see or hear anything that night or have information about the earlier dispute?
