A Florida father who had just dropped off his daughter for her first day of elementary school was shot and killed after trying to intervene in a fight between a man and a woman, police and reports said.
Daryl Hill, 56, now leaves behind his wife, two adult children and his 10-year-old daughter following the incident Tuesday morning near Wolf Lake Elementary School in Apopka, according to FOX 35 Orlando.
“He’s got the biggest heart in the entire world,” Damon Hill, his son, told the station. “He loved everybody… He just loved his fellow person, and he was very non-judgmental.”
The Orange County Sheriff’s Office said the shooting unfolded after witnesses described seeing a man and woman fighting inside a vehicle, before the vehicle crashed and the brawl spilled outside.

“Witnessing that altercation, a Good Samaritan attempted to intervene and was shot. That man, 56-year-old Daryl Alexander Hill, later died at the hospital,” the sheriff’s office said.
“Mr. Hill was simply trying to help someone who appeared to be in distress when he was shot by 26-year-old Raul Lionel Vazquez. Vazquez was arrested on a charge of Second-Degree Murder,” it added.
Suzanne Hill, Daryl’s wife, told Spectrum News 13 that her husband was a “friend, family and stranger: he cared for everybody and helped everybody and always stepped in, which I think is ultimately what took his life.”
Police said the shooting happened at Plymouth Sorrento and West Ponkan roads in Apopka, which is down the road from the elementary school.
Before Hill was shot, Vazquez and a woman, Kaidy Honaker, were seen by multiple witnesses fighting inside their white Chevy Silverado pickup truck when it crashed into a black Lexus, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital. The two continued their heated altercation on the sidewalk.

Vazquez, who was seen shirtless and wearing no shoes, got in Honaker’s face and appeared to be yelling and pointing at her, the affidavit said.
Two witnesses said they saw Hill riding a bicycle nearby and told authorities that he got involved in the argument, which led to Vazquez and Hill tackling each other into the bushes, per the affidavit.
According to the affidavit, Honaker joined the fight as well, later saying she did so to pull Hill off Vazquez.
After the fight in the bushes, Hill began running away from Vazquez and Honaker, yelling “help” with his hands in the air, the affidavit said.
Vazquez retrieved what was later determined to be a shotgun from his pickup truck and fired one round, hitting Hill and causing him to fall to the ground, according to the affidavit.
In an interview with investigators, Vazquez offered “many different accounts” of what happened but said that Hill “was fighting him and getting the better of him,” according to the affidavit.
At the time of the shooting, Vazquez was out on bond for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

FOX 35 reported that a judge has since revoked that bond and ordered him held without bond in that case and for the second-degree murder charge.
