A FSU criminal law professor died after a gunman entered his house and shot him in the head, police said.
Dan Markel, 41, was fatally shot Friday in his home, located in the Betton Hills section of Tallassee, Florida.
Authorities were called after a concerned neighbor heard a loud bang. Police found the victim bleeding from the bullet wound.
He was rushed to a local hospital, where he later died. Markel was killed by a single gunshot wound to the back.

Police say there were no signs of forced entry, leading investigators to believe the victim knew his killer and may have opened his door.
Markel had recently divorced from Wendi Adelson, the mother of his two children and a fellow FSU law professor. Adelson said through her lawyer, Jimmy Judkins, that she was “just devastated†and “scared to death.â€
“We do believe that this was not a random act where he just surprised somebody,†Officer David Northway said. "We believe that Mr. Markel, unfortunately, was the intended victim."
Police have opened a tip line, hoping someone with information will contact us, Northway said.
“There are probably two people in this world that know exactly where Mr. Markel was injured," Northway said. "One of those would be Mr. Markel himself and the other would be the suspect in this case.â€
Florida State University issued a statement that said, “We will feel his loss for many years to come.â€
More details are expected to be released as the story develops.

Jealously is an emotion that can take complete control of a person if it is not handled when it shows its signs. In the bible Cain killed his brother Abel because of jealously. Someone wanted Markel dead to an extent that they were able to do it with a single shot to his head. This is a great injustice.
