Tallahassee Police Make Multiple Arrests in Homicide Investigation

February 03, 2023

Today, Feb. 3, the Tallahassee Police Department (TPD) arrested three people following a shooting that occurred on May 21, 2022, in the 2400 block of Wintergreen Road.

Following a thorough investigation by TPD's Violent Crimes Unit, it was determined the three arrestees arranged to meet the victim, an adult male, to purchase a firearm that was being sold via social media. The arrestees arrived at the residence and intended to rob the victim. As the victim handed over the firearm, one of the arrestees produced a firearm and began shooting. A second arrestee also fired multiple shots. The victim sadly succumbed to his injuries on scene.

The subsequent investigation collected physical evidence and witness statements that helped detectives identify the suspects and develop probable cause for the arrests.

This arrest is a testament to TPD's tireless efforts and dedication to bring justice to the victim in this case. If you see something, say something. Report criminal activity by calling TPD at 850-891-4200. You can also remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers at 850-574-TIPS.
