A 71-year-old Florida man was allegedly shot to death by his neighbor on Thanksgiving Day while the two were engaged in a dispute, the Broward Sheriff’s Office said.
Hureleyon McLean, 71, went downstairs to talk to his Lauderdale Lakes neighbor who had left a note complaining his music was too loud on the holiday, McLean’s widow Rose told WTVJ.
“I heard it, and I just flew to the door,” she said of the gunshot. “When I look out, my husband was laying face down in the blood.”

Rose said they had been planning on celebrating Thanksgiving with family and friends that day when the unthinkable happened.
“He wasn’t sorry,” she told WSVN of the shooter. “He was just standing, looking at me with his gun in his hand the same way. And I go up to him and say, ‘Why did you shoot my husband? Why?’ And he said to me if I didn’t shut my mouth, he would shoot me, too.”
McLean’s pastor was in shock about the shooting.

According to the sheriff’s office, the investigation revealed that Aaron Lee Morris had delivered the fentanyl to Remington before her death. Toxicology results showed a fatal amount of the drug in her system.
On Tuesday, HCSO’s Opioid Overdose Investigation Section arrested Morris, 46, and charged him with first-degree murder resulting from the unlawful distribution of a controlled substance.
“Fentanyl continues to destroy lives and devastate families in our community,” Sheriff Chad Chronister said. “If you choose to distribute this deadly poison, you will be held accountable for the lives lost as a result of your actions.”
From Boston to now Miami, the Tartan Army has been marching through the streets of South Florida preparing for the Scotland v. Brazil World Cup game at 6 p.m. Known for their crowd-drawing shenanigans, the term “Tartan Army” has been trending on people’s For You Page, but who are they exactly?
The term “Tartan Army” is a nickname for Scotland’s fan base who support the country’s national team. The concept of “Tartan” comes from the iconic fabric design on kilts and is recognized as a symbol of Scottish identity.
The army gained attention for their rowdy team spirit, but also because some bars in Boston ran out of beer as the city hosted Scotland’s first two games. Now they have arrived in Miami and have been making their presence known.
On Monday, around 8,000 army followers marched from a bar called Ball and Chain to the Marlins’ game, making their presence known throughout South Florida.
Then on Tuesday, the Scotland fans invaded Miami Beach as the beer company Miller Lite presented the fans with a tartan beer barge that read “Restock the Scots.”
With the game against Brazil set for later tonight, the Tartan Army will now flood Miami Stadium with beer, bagpipes and kilts.
