ECSO Looking For Attempted Murder Suspect

January 3, 2020

The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office is looking for a shooting suspect.

Phillip Isaac Bivins, 18, is wanted for attempted murder for a shooting on Thursday. The ECSO says he is considered armed and dangerous.

The Pensacola Police Department responded to Bayou Boulevard after a vehicle crashed into a ditch Thursday afternoon. They discovered a person in the car had been shot three times on Tryton Circle in the county.

Bivins and the victim got into an argument over how a blunt — a marijuana cigarette — was rolled, according to the ECSO. They decided to go to Tryton Circle to settle the dispute with a fight, but when the victim arrived, Bivins allegedly shot him.

Anyone with information on the shooting or the whereabouts of Bivins is asked to call the ECSO at (850) 436-9620 or Crime Stoppers at (850) 433-STOP.

    y’all do realize they are only speculating on what happened. like they don’t know for sure and honestly they may never there’s always 2 sides to everything. also stop acting like pot and every habitat place is bad just cuz of one person.

    Habitat for “Humanity” not thugs. When they don’t earn it, they don’t appreciate it, and providing them low-income housing just allows them to go about their criminal business! Residents should prove they have jobs and be drug tested monthly.

    And, oh yeah, let’s just legalize pot. More pot heads will make the country so much better.

    Karen, If you hear a Habitat for Humanity house is going into your neighborhood SELL ASAP before your property values plummet.

    Great! This occurred just a few miles from me in a fairly new Habitat for Humanity housing neighborhood. As a matter of fact, I was a volunteer on one of the houses that was built. This area has gone downhill every since those homes were built. It’s amazing how quickly an older, decent neighborhood can go down the tubes once the thugs move in nearby! Ugh!
