February 15, 2014

An Escambia County man has been convicted on two counts of attempted murder.

Timothy Jerome Lowe, 29, was convicted by an Escambia County Jury of attempted second degree murder, two counts of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer and resisting an officer with violence.

Circuit Judge Ross Goodman scheduled sentencing for March 25.  Lowe faces a minimum mandatory 25 years to life in prison.

On December 16, 2012, Lowe shot at Melvin Coley in the parking lot of the Travel Inn on Cervantes Street in a dispute over narcotics. Two police officers were in the area and heard the shots. When those officers responded to the scene, Lowe turned his gun on them. The officers fired at Lowe, striking him one time in the leg. The officers were not harmed. After
a short foot pursuit, Lowe was apprehended.

    lets hope it’s for life. he obviously doesn’t regard life as something that should be preserved. This is the kind of garbage prohibition keeps in business. End prohibition and bring back personal responsibility: it will end a large majority of the crimes commited and free up lawenforcement to concentrate on real crime.
