Coral Springs (Floride), 1er avril 2026 (Presslakay) \u2014 Nancy Metayer Bowen, vice-maire de Coral Springs et figure montante de la politique floridienne, a \u00e9t\u00e9 retrouv\u00e9e morte mercredi par balle \u00e0 son domicile dans ce que la police qualifie d’incident de violence domestique. Son mari, Stephen Bowen, a \u00e9t\u00e9 arr\u00eat\u00e9 apr\u00e8s une courte fuite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
C’est son absence \u00e0 une r\u00e9union de la commission municipale et \u00e0 une r\u00e9union du conseil d’administration d’une \u00e9cole charter ce mercredi 1er avril 2026 qui a alert\u00e9 son entourage, d\u00e9clenchant un contr\u00f4le de bien-\u00eatre \u00e0 son domicile vers 10 heures du matin. Un ami de la vice-maire, n’ayant pu la joindre, avait contact\u00e9 Stephen Bowen dont le comportement au t\u00e9l\u00e9phone avait paru suspect, avant d’appeler la police. Bowen avait pris la fuite vers Plantation, o\u00f9 il a \u00e9t\u00e9 localis\u00e9 et interpell\u00e9 au complexe Landmark Towers gr\u00e2ce aux lecteurs de plaques automatiques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00c2g\u00e9e de 38 ans, scientifique environnementale de formation et dipl\u00f4m\u00e9e de la Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Nancy Metayer Bowen avait \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9lue en 2020 \u00e0 la commission municipale de Coral Springs, devenant la premi\u00e8re femme noire et ha\u00eftiano-am\u00e9ricaine \u00e0 y si\u00e9ger, avant d’\u00eatre r\u00e9\u00e9lue sans opposition en 2024. Elle occupait \u00e9galement le poste de vice-pr\u00e9sidente du Parti d\u00e9mocrate de Floride, charg\u00e9e de la communaut\u00e9 ha\u00eftienne. Le repr\u00e9sentant Jared Moskowitz a r\u00e9v\u00e9l\u00e9 qu’elle s’appr\u00eatait \u00e0 annoncer sa candidature au Congr\u00e8s am\u00e9ricain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cette mort survient quelques mois apr\u00e8s un autre drame familial : en d\u00e9cembre 2025, son fr\u00e8re Joshua, 26 ans, survivant de la fusillade de Marjory Stoneman Douglas en 2018, s’\u00e9tait donn\u00e9 la mort apr\u00e8s de longues ann\u00e9es de lutte contre la schizophr\u00e9nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La directrice g\u00e9n\u00e9rale de la ville, Catherine Givens, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 que qualifier ce jour de \u00ab\u00a0jour tr\u00e8s sombre pour Coral Springs\u00a0\u00bb \u00e9tait un euph\u00e9misme, ajoutant qu’il n’existe pas de mots pour mesurer l’ampleur de cette perte. La communaut\u00e9 ha\u00eftiano-am\u00e9ricaine de Floride pleure l’une de ses voix les plus engag\u00e9es.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
