ESCAMBIA COUNTY, Fla. -- The person who shot and killed a 16-year-old in Escambia County last Friday will not be charged, after the Escambia County Sheriff's Office determined they acted in self-defense.

The Escambia County Sheriff's Office says the now deceased 16-year-old and his 16-year-old accomplice, Jamal Calvin Spurlock Jr., were attempting to buy methamphetamines from a homeless camp near Murphy Lane.

Upon finding out no one at the camp had any methamphetamines to sell, the two teens pointed guns at two victims, threatening to steal their belongings.

A male individual was called upon to assist the two victims, according to the sheriff's office. When he arrived, the sheriff's office says the teens pointed a gun at him.

Gunfire was exchanged, where one of the teens was shot in the head and killed.

Further investigation determined that the male individual acted in self-defense, resulting in a portion of the investigation being ruled as "Stand Your Ground."

Spurlock Jr. has been arrested and charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a firearm, third degree felony murder, two counts of deadly missiles, and carrying a firearm.
