Marion County sheriffs officials say a homeowner armed with an AR-15 shot and killed two intruders and was injured himself during a home invasion robbery in Summerfield Wednesday night.

Two other robbery suspects Robert John Hamilton, 19, of Ocala, and Seth Adam Rodriguez, 22, of Belleview were detained near the scene, according to the Marion County Sheriffs Office.

Nigel Doyle, 22, of Summerfield, and Keith Jackson Jr., 21, Ocala, were killed. The homeowner, whose name was not released by the Sheriffs Office, was in stable condition at a hospital Thursday afternoon.

Rodriguez was arrested on charges of murder and home invasion robbery with a firearm. Hamilton faces home invasion robbery with a firearm. Both men were being held in the Marion County Jail without bond.

Deputies got the call at 8:21 p.m. Wednesday and went to the home at 14999 SE 32nd Court Road in response to a report of shots fired.

Sgt. Micah Moore found Doyle with a gunshot wound and a shotgun next to him on the ground. Deputies entered the home and found Jackson dead on the dining room floor. Detectives said he was wearing a Jason mask on top of his head, gloves on both hands, jeans and a black shirt.

Near Jacksons head was a semi-automatic pistol, detectives said.

Continuing into the home, deputies found the 61-year-old homeowner in a bedroom.

He had an AR-15 rifle on his legs and was bleeding from a gunshot wound to the stomach, according to sheriffs officials. Doyle and the homeowner were transported to Ocala Regional Medical Center, where Doyle died.

Deputies continued to search the area.

Deputy Austin Coon and K-9 Deputy Alberto Gago, with his dog Nitro, found Rodriguez and Hamilton in the 15000 block of Southeast 36th Avenue, according to arrest reports. Rodriguez was hiding in tall grass on the side of the road.

He was wearing sweat pants and a purple shirt. Hamilton was wearing all black clothing.

Deputies said the men were sweating.

The mobile home where the shooting occurred is on a 20-acre lot with dense woods and a single-lane dirt driveway. The distance from a gate to home is roughly 300 yards.

Deputies found a Volkswagen parked near the south side of the home. The front doors were open.

Deputies recovered a pump-action shotgun on the ground next to the front porch. They reported smelling a strong odor of marijuana at the home.

The homeowner told Detective Travis OCull that, about an hour before the shooting, a male who he barely remembers from a past Craigslist transaction, knocked on the front door, according to sheriffs officials.

The homeowner said he did not open the door but saw the male peering through a back sliding-glass door. He said he asked the male what he was doing and was told he needed help with his vehicle.

The homeowner said he told the individual he was disabled and couldnt help him. That person then left and homeowner went to sleep.

The homeowner told the detective he was awakened by a loud noise and grabbed his AR-15, which was near his bed. He saw a masked person inside the home, he said, and he and the intruders exchanged gunfire. He said he shot at the man in the mask and at a second person coming toward him.

The homeowner said it was Jackson who shot him.

Detectives Ian Simpson and John Lightle interviewed Rodriguez and Hamilton.

According to arrest reports, Rodriguez said he, Hamilton, Doyle and Jackson were Doyles at home earlier in the day and that Doyle and Jackson planned to rob the Summerfield home for marijuana and guns.

They left Doyles home in Jacksons car and went to there, the report states. Rodriguez said Hamilton kicked in the front door and Doyle and Jackson rushed inside. Rodriguez said he heard gunshots from the homeowner.

Rodriguez said Doyle had given him a BB gun at the doorway. He said he ran away and got rid of the weapon.

Hamilton told the detectives he got out of the car before the robbery and walked down the street. He denied being at the scene. After the interviews, both men were arrested.

Detectives secured the crime scene on Wednesday night, and returned to the home on Thursday morning to execute a search warrant on the property. They concluded their search in the afternoon and collected firearms, shell casings and other evidence.

Local court records show two of the four suspects have criminal records. Hamilton was found guilty in 2018 and served time for grand theft.

Doyle was adjudicated guilty in 2017 for DUI and possession of ammunition by a delinquent in 2017.

As for the homeowner, detectives said there are no charges against him and nothing prevents him from owning guns.

Neighbors interviewed by the Star-Banner said he usually keeps to himself and normally says Hi when they see him leaving his property.


Thank goodness he was armed.

There were plenty of guns in the US in the 1950s, and kids werent shooting up their schools. Maybe something else is the problem, like the prescription drugs for instance.

That wont get much media attention though. Whether you are watching right wing or left wing news, there are lots of drug commercials.

I mean for fuck's sake it was 93 degrees Farenheit when I was on my way home from work today and I live in New England so I can't even imagine what it was like closer to the equator, although I don't know where this story took place, but I would guess that it is in the northern hemisphere so yeah fucking of course they were sweating. I hope paramedics treated their possible heat stroke/exhaustion symptoms in addition to their wounds. I personally would be really fearful and stressed out if I was shot, but even more so if I was shot in weather like this :(

I think a large part of it is how crappy things have gotten in general in this country. Wages have stagnated, jobs (that aren't part time) are disappearing, the wage gap is increasing, healthcare is expensive and hard to get, etc. Mainly the expensive health care part of course.

Palmetto state full blackout lowers for 99 right now.

Next week they'll have some basic upper for 159 or some shit. Making a very functional, throw away rifle available for under $300 bucks.

That way you can rid yourself of garbage if they try to break in like in this case and not break the bank.

It depends. There was another incident where a vet shot two young people for repeatably breaking into his home, and he was charged for murder since he specifically waited and setup to execute them.

What's not to believe? Obviously it sucks that he was the victim of a crime. Obvious it sucks that people died. Obviously the good news is that the victim survived and it's objectively good that he had the means to defend himself and his home. That all goes without saying. I felt like I was gonna pass out today on more than one occasion. A homeless dude was asking people to buy him water or soda and sounded distressed when he said he was thirsty. I actually felt bad that I didn't help him but I wasn't looking to make any stops on the way home and even if I just popped into CVS or a restaurant for a bottle of water, they mostly have minimum transactions for cards and I'm not spending actual cash because I need it for bus fare.

If I was shot defending myself in a home invasion when it was 90-something degrees, I would fear for my life more than if it was 60-something degrees while waiting for paramedics. At least then I would be able to control my stress level just a little bit more and sometimes that makes all the difference. I said what I said with more empathy that you even know.
