OCALA, Fla. (WCJB) - Marion County Sheriff’s deputies located Caden Speight, 17, of Dunnellon, on Friday afternoon in Williston following an overnight search and Amber Alert. Officials say initial claims about a Caden being shot and abducted were unfounded.

Marion County Sheriff’s deputies no longer believe Caden Speight, 17, of Dunnellon, was taken by four Hispanic men as originally reported in an Amber Alert on Thursday night. His disappearance was connected to a shooting in Dunnellon; however, the teen wasn’t wounded.

Authorities say they have new evidence that contradicts previously reported facts. Now, deputies say Caden may have left the scene of a shooting on Highway 484 on a black bicycle with a tent.

Caden was seen purchasing the bicycle and tent at the Walmart on Southwest 19th Avenue Road in Ocala just before the shooting reportedly occurred.

“evidence that contradicts previously reported facts”

Then previous reported “facts” never were.

“ Authorities say they have new evidence that contradicts previously reported facts.”

I can’t believe a reporter wrote that. A fact is irrefutably true, it is a fact or not a fact.
