Eighteen-year-old Dejuan Williams was murdered Tuesday night at his home in Manatee County. Williams was shot by an intruder who fired one bullet before fleeing from the scene.
Earlier Tuesday evening, Williams was out with friends when he learned that his sister was home alone with a male guest. Williams returned home and discovered that the house's back window was broken.
Williams and his friends found the intruder hiding near a shed. When Williams confronted the suspect, the man pulled out a handgun and fired.
Police officials said they located two suspects, as well as the gun allegedly used in the murder.
