PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. (WWSB) - A 15-year-old boy was killed last week in Charlotte County while defending his 5-year-old sister, according to the teen’s family, who has now chosen to come forward.
The sheriff’s office says around 4pm last Thursday, September 26, they were called to Starlite Lane and Ocean Boulevard in Port Charlotte where neighbors said an injured man had been seen walking along the streets.
When deputies arrived, they spotted 27-year-old Ryan Cole. He had been stabbed several times on his hands and side and ran from deputies, crossing the canal towards Conway Boulevard.Deputies say Cole broke into a home on Conway. The homeowner called 911 and deputies took him into custody after a short foot pursuit. Cole was then taken to be treated at a local hospital for his wounds.
The sheriff’s office says they began canvassing the neighborhood and discovered that Cole had broken into a home on Starlite Lane. Inside, they found 15-year-old Khyler Edman deceased.
Deputies say Cole broke into the home, a violent encounter occurred, and Edman died protecting his younger sibling.
The sheriff’s office did not release how Edman died and initially stated the family wished for privacy, but the teen’s family came forward Monday to say Edman was killed in the home while protecting his 5-year-old sister, who was found in the home unharmed.
A GoFundMe account has raised more than $20,000 for Edman’s family.
Cole is currently being held on burglary of an occupied dwelling and petit theft for the break-in on Conway. The sheriff’s office says they continue to investigate what happened at the home on Starlite Lane and expect additional charges to be filed against Cole.
The sheriff’s office says Cole is known to deputies, currently on probation and has a history of drug use. He’s had several arrests in Port Charlotte this year, including:
February 15 - Trespassing and Resisting an Officer Without Violence
March 13 - Possession of a Controlled Substance Without a Prescription and Possession or Use of Drug Paraphernalia
June 11 - Trespassing and Resisting an Officer Without Violence
June 30 - First Degree Petit Larceny
August 6 - Disorderly Conduct and Resisting an Officer Without Violence

It's a shame he died, but his fight wasn't for nothing. Kid was a fricking hero.

Sad sad sad. Where was the dad in all of this?

Damn it.
In between this and the legless dog story (which I'm NOT clicking on BTW), I think this is enough Internet for the day.

Too bad they didn't kill him. At the very least, they should have let him suffer from his wounds.

Need to bring back public torture for fricks like this

Hopefully the DA throws the book at this piece of shite. Better yet, hopefully someone beats Cole to death in custody.

Why was the guy trying to harm the 5 year old and why would he attack the 15 year old? I feel like this is a junkie breaking into a house he thought was empty to steal some shite. Normally they go path of least resistance and just flee from conflict.
These are the types of crimes that should have an expedited .45 to the brain behind the jail.

Damnit that boy is a MAN. Went down on his own terms, making sure his little sister was ok. That’s a fricking hero. I’m crying in my office right now. Ugly tears. This is heartbreaking.

Just put a bullet in this POS already. He’s a waste of space and doesn’t deserve to live.

The GoFundMe for the latest hoax against Trump has triple that amount.
What a fricked up world we live in.

Tragic and prayers to the family, but why do all of these tragic events include a gofundme?

This happened last week. Why is the MF’er still breathing?
Hang him, run him through a cremater and be done with it.
We are too soft on repeat/violent offenders.
