PhotoThe event was called “Shoot at Hurricane Irma,” and everyone was invited. In it, he called the hurricane “goofy” and added, in all caps, “LETS SHOW IRMA THAT WE SHOOT FIRST.”At that time, the Houston metropolitan area was just beginning to recover after Hurricane Harvey. “Shoot at Hurricane Irma” was to start at 10 a.m. on Sunday. But at that moment, Mr. Edwards was sheltering at home, and there was no hurricane to shoot at. As the wind began to gain strength in DeLand, Mr. Edwards left one more post on his Facebook event page.
