Atmore Man Free On Bond After Century Shotgun Shooting
December 12, 2011
The 55-year old Atmore man accused of shooting another man with a shotgun last week in Century has been released from jail on $13,000 bond.
Willie Floyd of Freemanville Drive is charged with aggravated battery, discharging a firearm in a public place and criminal mischief. He’s accused of shooting 30-year old Deririck Medlock of Hoover, Ala., last week as he ran across the 8100 block of North Century Boulevard.
Medlock told the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office that he was traveling north on Century Boulevard when Floyd swerved in front of him, cutting him off. Medlock pulled into the parking lot of the Century Quick Stop after the incident. Floyd then pulled into the parking lot and opened fire with a shotgun, hitting Medlock’s car with birdshot.
As Medlock ran across North Century Boulevard, he heard another shot and was hit in the leg with birdshot. His injuries were not severe.
