Crump stated that Fortson was on a Facetime call with a woman during the fatal incident. The woman, whose identity has not been disclosed, reported that Fortson was by himself in his apartment when he heard a knock at the door. According to Crump, Fortson asked who was knocking at the door but received no answer. A few minutes later, he heard a louder knock and checked out the area, but did not see anyone. That’s when Fortson grabbed his gun that legally owned and walked into the living room. Deputies then burst through the door and shot him 6 times. 

Subsequently, he passed away at a hospital, as stated by Okaloosa County Sheriff Eric Aden in a press release on Tuesday, May 7. Furthermore, the deputy responsible for shooting Fortson was put on administrative leave while an investigation is conducted.
