Former Century Resident With Long Criminal History Charged With Pensacola Murder
June 12, 2025
A former Century resident with a long criminal history was arrested by U.S. Marshals Wednesday afternoon in Tallahassee for a fatal shooting at the Pensacola Village Apartments late last month.
Antonio Demetrius Ewing, 34, is charged with second degree murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
Pensacola Police have released few details about the murder about 6:15 p.m. on May 30 at the apartment complex on Fairfield Drive. A man was found with a gunshot wound to the chest and transported to the hospital where he later died.
Ewing remained in the Leon County Jail in Tallahassee awaiting transfer back to Escambia County.
In 2010, Ewing was sentenced to 10 years in prison on charges related to a 2009 crime spree in which he robbed the Molino Tom Thumb, stole tires in Century to fix a flat on the getaway car and then escaped from deputies after he was arrested.
He was later implicated in an attempt to pass counterfeit money at Odom’s Bar on North Century Boulevard and other local businesses in the area. He was sentenced to 11 months in the county jail.
Ewing also served time in state prison for grand theft, robbery by sudden snatching, burglary, weapon possession by a convicted felon and carrying a concealed weapon. On January 27, 2025, he was released from prison after serving three years for cocaine possession and obstruction.

@Jack State needs to bring back the chair, reduce appeals to less than 24-months, and wake up criminals to consequences.
free him the fast way
Time to start going after these judges all this county cares about is money if not, then why do they keep letting them out on low bonds? This dude has always been trouble and would steal anything from anyone!
There is no prison space. Over 60% of the people in prison are serving life or so many years that they are going to die in prison. I have done several years in prison. It is just a revolving door. Saw people that it was their 8th time. You didn’t learn the first 7 times. Prison is full of murders and sex offenders, even if you brought back parole they are not going to let them out. So that would not fix the system. The courts are just going to keep giving the repeat offenders a slap on the wrist until they really mess up.
They should crank up Ol’ Sparky for this dude.
So WHY does this person keep getting let back out of jail?! It is obvious that he cannot function in a societal environment!!
