    Lehigh Acres, FL - A shooting over the weekend left one person injured after a Southwest Florida man tried to rob the seller of a Facebook Marketplace item he met to purchase.

    Lee County deputies responded to the scene at the intersection of Lee Boulevard and Gunnery Road.

    According to reports, 19-year-old Jaylon Shaw arrived at a residence following a connection made on Facebook Marketplace for a transaction.

    However, the situation turned violent when Shaw allegedly attempted to rob the seller.

    In response, the seller fired a shot, injuring Shaw as he attempted to flee.

    Despite being the victim of a robbery attempt, the seller reportedly will not press charges against Shaw.

    The extent of Shaw's injuries and the status of the investigation remain undisclosed by Lee County deputies.
