FL: Gunfight, Legally Armed Citizen Stops Crime Spree, Shoots, Kills, Career Criminal

Deputies say the carjacking suspect has been identified as Eric I. Jackson, 32.

Investigators say he also tried to get into a couple of businesses but most of them were not open yet. One business employee held a door closed, so the suspect -- who was carrying a gun -- couldn't get in.

An armed manager from one of the businesses eventually confronted the suspect, leading to an altercation between that manager and the suspect. Authorities say shots were fired, and the carjacker was shot in the upper body. He was taken to South Bay Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. No other people were hurt.

The business manager had a license to carry. No charges have been pressed again him.

According to law enforcement, the suspect had a long criminal history that included 10 narcotics-related felony drug charges.
