Who is Patrick McDowell?

A weapons instructor who has worked with McDowell in the past told News 4 Jax that the suspect is a former marine, a "survivalist" who is likely to hide well. “He was a student of mine. He worked for a security company. I did his training and then his annual recertification for about three years. That was about 10 or 12 years ago,” Weapons instructor Del Angelo said. "He’s very much a survivalist and he’s been military trained on survival and weapons use. So he’s very accomplished at survival and being unrecognized. He can’t change his appearance but he can sure hide well and know how to stay out of people’s line of sight."

The Blue alert issued for the suspect says that anyone who sees him must not directly approach him, but should immediately contact law enforcement. Similar to the Amber Alert for missing children, or a Silver Alert for missing senior citizens, the Blue Alert is issued for criminals who seriously injure or kill local, state, or federal law enforcement officers. 

On Sunday, September 26, a photo of the suspect was released by the Sheriff’s Office, showing the Marine motto tattooed on McDowell's body. "We’ve had several people asking about tattoos… these are Patrick McDowell’s tattoos. Thank you for your help and support. Also including another shot of his face to keep that circulating.#findMcDowell," Nassau County SO tweeted, along with the photos.

“I know he was military trained, and he was a very good student, very professional. I didn’t know anything negative about him,” Angelo said. “We just trained him basically for security response and how to use a handgun for self-defense or for protecting an area and he was very accomplished in his use of a handgun.” Angelo added that he hopes McDowell is nabbed soon, before he can hurt anyone else, and said that he is "really shocked and surprised about the events that have unfolded here."

'If he breaks into your home and you have a gun, blow him out the door': Cop's advice to people of Jacksonville as they hunt 'rabid animal' ex-Marine who fatally shot deputy in the face after being stopped in stolen minivan

Joshua Moyers, 29, died Sunday after he was shot in the face and back on Friday following a traffic stop of ex-Marine Patrick McDowell, who was driving a stolen minivan. 

 

Patrick McDowell, 35, who was a Marine from 2005 to 2013, is likely armed and dangerous, officials said, as they scour a 300,000-acre area near Jacksonville after finding a flashlight and a hat they think belonged to McDowell. 

 

'If you are in a home and he breaks in your home and you have a gun, blow him out the door. Because he's like a rabid animal. He will kill you,' said Nassau County Sheriff Bill Leeper. 'What he did to that deputy was uncalled for and was unnecessary and he needs to pay for it.' 

 

Federal and state officials have joined in the manhunt and released images of the suspected killer's tattoos.
