Gun Watch ^ | 2 February, 2015 | Dean Weingarten

Steven Ricker has been in and out of jail 11 times since 2006.   At about 4:30 a.m. on Thursday, 1 February, he was shot and killed.  The Leesburg resident who shot him says that Ricker was attempting to force his way into his family's apartment.  The manager of the apartment complex says that Ricker had banged on his door first, and that he appeared to be high and searching for drugs.  The manager thought Ricker had left, until he heard the gunshot.

Steven Ricker has been in and out of jail 11 times since 2006.

I wonder what he would've won with the 12th punch on his frequently-jailed card?

Thanks to a certain Leesburg resident, we'll never know.

Very sad. A wasted life.

Prayers up for all who will suffer because of this incident, especially the person who had to stop this guy.

“Prayers up for all who will suffer because of this incident, especially the person who had to stop this guy.”

Yes. Often those involved with drugs hurt those closest to them the most.

Reminds me of some of my former customers from when I ran a library in a state prison.

Then there was the guys who were mentally ill. THEY were scary!

Steven Mark Ricker. Mugshots.com has two pages of this guy.

It looks like somebody took a broken bottle to his face.
