Lake Gross Road, a truck pulled up next to him, shots rang out from inside, and the suspects peeled off fast. Schultz's car veered out of control, smashing through two front yards, hitting a part to vehicle, and clipping a house. No one inside got hurt, but the damage was real. Turns out, those in the truck had a beef going with Schultz that boiled over into this mess. Investigators quickly zeroed in on the driver, 31-year-old Andrew Berry, hauling him in for questioning right away. Berry now faces second-degree murder, plus charges for firing from a vehicle and showing off a gun improperly. Meanwhile, they put out a call for 38-year-old Leon Jarell Sims from Seabring as the suspected shooter. On April 27, Sims walked into authorities and surrendered, picking up the same heavy
charges, second-degree murder, shooting from a vehicle, firing into an occupied car, and that improper exhibition count. He loyered up quick and wouldn't talk. With both suspects locked up and charged, this neighborhood tragedy shifts to the courts, leaving folks hoping for some real answers and closure soon.
