Investigators said their statements were also corroborated by surveillance video that captured the incident.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Jail records show West, who is facing charges of second-degree murder with a firearm and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, is being held without bond at the Metrowest Detention Center, as of Friday morning. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Records show West was previously convicted of attempted felony murder and aggravated battery with a firearm causing bodily harm in an unrelated case.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">A motive for the 2019 shooting remains unclear at this time. <\/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<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" alt=\"Ryan Mackey\" class=\"c-image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/https:\/\/author-service-images-sandbox-us-east-1.publishing.aws.arc.pub\/wplginc\/8725e99c-e445-48a0-bd.jpeg\"  width=\"100\" height=\"100\"\/>Ryan Mackey <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph b-author-bio__author-description\">Ryan Mackey is a Digital Journalist at WPLG.
