Edgewater, Florida police officer David Jewell and his murderer, Eduardo Machado
Edgewater Florida PD officer
David Jewell was shot in the back and killed by an employee of the
Circle K Store where he stopped for a hot dog on Monday afternoon.
The
officer was waiting in line to buy a hot dog at the store when an
employee of the store exited the back, retrieved a firearm and shot
Officer Jewell in the back several times, killing him. There is
reasonably good quality surveillance footage of the murder. The
killer's weapon seemed to jam and the killer cleared the jam and
continued to shoot Jewel as he lay on the floor. Jewell and the shooter
knew each other. Jewell was a frequent customer in the store.
Before becoming a cop Jewell had worked in the communication section at the Volusia County Sheriff's Office.
The
shooter was arrested at the scene. There is no known motive in the
shooting. The shooter, Eduardo Machado, 24, is a legal resident alien
and is believed to have some mental health issues. He has admitted to
the shooting.
