ECSO: Man Attempts To Carjack Deputy
April 26, 2017
One man was arrested Friday after he attempted to carjack an Escambia County Sheriff’s deputy.
The ECSO said 36-year old Kevin Donnell Owens approached a vehicle on Chestnut Street and began to pull a gun from his waistband. That’s when he realized he was about to carjack a deputy in an unmarked vehicle. He fled on foot before being captured.
The Sheriff’s Office said Owens is a convicted felon with an extensive criminal history. He was charged with possession of a firearm by a felon and carrying a concealed weapon.
Owens was one of 16 people arrested during a 16-day high intensity operation by the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office. Click here to read more.

Too bad he realized too quickly he was making a big mistake. Such an idiot. interview his family and I bet you will be told that he didn’t own or have a firearm. Right!
LOL, LOL, LOL ….
I just had to chuckle what bad bad ‘luck’ this guy had. The Lord was definitely protecting the officer by him running and not firing in a panic.
Lol! This guy is DEFINITELY a MENSA candidate!
The day we go to one meal and no air-conditioning, half of this crime will stop.
OMG this is hilarious!!! Idiot!
Well surprise surprise surprise
As a society which houses people in jail for 50k a year at taxpayer expense, this stupidity has to stop. Jail does not work. It provides an incubator for future crime. It gives people certain meals, housing, and a social structure which guarantees when released they will commit crimes. Big corporations now will not pay 30% corporate taxes, ship their jobs overseas, as America has become once again a colony where poverty and desperation replace a once vibrant middle class and crime fills the gap of opportunity. Instead of putting this person in an American jail, after the second violent felony, or use of a weapon in the commission of a felony, ship the inmates to 100 third world country private prisons to serve the first two years of any sentence. Taxpayers save money. The first two years will be a real deterrent if a person knows they will be shipped off and serve their time with people who do not speak their language, eat half the food, live in miserable conditions. It is removal from the incubators of crime, which prison has become which might break this cycle. It probably would require a constitutional amendment, but 90% of Americans would get onboard.
LOSER & a BIG DUMMY !!! Too Funny. Just maybe they will keep him locked up this time around or let him out again SO someone can shoot him and put him out of his misery. It will happen sooner than later if he picks on the wrong person.
Owens is a convicted felon with an extensive criminal history. Is this what we are paying the elected justice officials for. Put him in prison and keep him there. Every time a LEO has to deal with scum like this over and over again its the justice system that endangers LEO’s lives.
John there are many more rap sheet criminals on the street than there are in jail.
This criminal has made my day . You are a complete adult idiot whatever you get fool in prison you deserve lol !!!!!
Good work !! i am proud to see our Sheriff getting these trash off of our streets – now lets stop these beggars annoying you at so many corners – it is a huge negative for Pensacola visitors
If he has a “extensive criminal history” why, why, why, is he walking the streets. He should be pushing up daisies.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
