A Florida woman is in police custody after being accused of shooting and killing her ex-husbands in two separate incidents in two counties. <\/p>\n
Law enforcement in Manatee County said Susan Avalon had used stolen food from a Panera to get an ex-husband to open his front door on Dec. 17. <\/p>\n
Officials said surveillance video showed Avalon walking into the restaurant and grabbing an order from a pickup shelf, then going to the man\u2019s home. <\/p>\n
A Manatee County sheriff\u2019s office spokesperson said, \u201cWhen this victim opens the door, suspect starts to fire immediately,\u201d WWSB<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n The man was hit in the abdomen, WTVT<\/a> reported. <\/p>\n His daughter was home but didn\u2019t see the shooting, however she told deputies that she heard the gunshots and saw a person drive off in a silver Honda Odyssey. <\/p>\n The man was able to tell police that the shooter was possibly his ex-wife before he died, Bay News 9<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n The couple had been divorced for 11 years and had been in a custody dispute and $4,000 in unpaid child support, WWSB<\/a> reported. She had been ordered to pay $200 in December or lose her driver\u2019s license. <\/p>\n Detectives arrived at Avalon\u2019s home in Citrus County and said she was cleaning her minivan with bleach. They told her that they needed to speak with her about her ex-husband and the detectives said she asked, \u201cWhich one?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe only know of one,\u201d Manatee County Sheriff Rick Wells said, according to WTVT<\/a>. \u201cShe starts to make comments that he\u2019s a child abuser. He\u2019s a molester. Just talking about all these problems she\u2019s had with this ex-husband. She thinks we\u2019re there from Hillsborough County. She thinks my detectives are Hillsborough County detectives. Detectives are trying to figure out what she\u2019s talking about.\u201d<\/p>\n Eventually, they conducted a welfare check on her other ex-husband, who lived in Tampa. He was found dead inside his home with multiple gunshot wounds, police said. The rear door of the home showed forced entry, Tampa Police said, according to WWSB<\/a>. <\/p>\n Avalon\u2019s live-in boyfriend said that she had recently found the Manatee County husband\u2019s address. <\/p>\n Wells said he believes that she went to her second ex-husband\u2019s home in Tampa, then went to Panera, took the food, then went to her first ex-husband\u2019s home in and shot him. <\/p>\n
