A 23-year-old man who used Florida’s Stand Your Ground law as a defense was convicted Friday for firing a handgun at a Taco Bell coworker following a fist fight, according to State Attorney Angela Corey’s office.
Gordon Agenor and Marquis Brown worked at the fast food restaurant on Atlantic Boulevard in May 2011 when the two got into a scuffle, a news release says. After the fight, Agenor went to his truck and grabbed a gun from the glove compartment.
Brown ran across Atlantic when he saw the weapon, and Agenor fired at him three times “during broad daylight and rush hour traffic,” prosecutors said. Agenor said he was trying to “wound” Brown.
