Somebody, he freaked out, attacked me\u201d and then later when officers asked where the victim was, Hutterli stated, \u201cHe went to the elevator man, what the f&#8212;, I\u2019m all beat up\u201d and then inquired \u201cWhat is the situation? Did he jump?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">According to an arrest report, officers allowed Hutterli to call his mother, a conversation that was captured on body camera footage, and during the call police said Hutterli could be heard saying that he was leaving the apartment because the victim told him to leave, but police noted that around nine minutes had passed from when the victim was demanding Hutterli to leave during the 911 call to the moment officers arrived and Hutterli was still there, indicating he had time to leave. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Police said when officers reviewed surveillance footage, it showed the victim striking the pavement outside the building at 10:30 p.m., meaning only one minute had passed from that moment to when officers arrived and Hutterli was seen trying to leave the apartment, despite the 911 call being made and the demand to leave being heard nine minutes prior. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">After obtaining a search warrant, police said they found signs of a struggle inside the unit that led to the balcony, and that the balcony doors were left open. Police said they also found Hutterli\u2019s sandals on the balcony and blood on the balcony railing, which officers said coincides with where the victim\u2019s body fell from. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">During their search, police said they located the victim\u2019s cellphone that placed the 911 call on the bathroom floor, as well as pieces of Hutterli\u2019s beard were seen \u201cscattered throughout the living room.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">When searching Hutterli\u2019s personal items, police said they found more pieces of his beard hair inside his backpack \u201cas if he was attempting to both retrieve and conceal evidence from the scene,\u201d according to an arrest form, as well as a bag of Ketamine inside the pocket of a jacket that was also inside the backpack. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Ultimately, investigators said a combination of the 911 call, the evidence of a struggle that included the beard hair, a cut to Hutterli\u2019s right thumb, scratches on his arm and the statements he made to police, they arrested him for second degree murder. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Authorities said Hutterli was already out on felony bond. He is also facing charges of burglary with assault or battery, possession of a controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">As of Thursday morning, Hutterli was being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center with bond listed as \u201cto be set.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfe0 News From Your Neighborhood<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph b-article-body__copyright\">Copyright 2026 by WPLG Local10.com &#8211; All rights reserved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"MIAMI BEACH, Fla. \u2014 A man facing a murder charge was taken into custody by Miami Beach police&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":225018,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[123,125,124],"class_list":["post-225017","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-miami","tag-miami","tag-miami-headlines","tag-miami-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/225017","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=225017"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/225017\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/225018"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=225017"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=225017"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=225017"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
