ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 The Orlando Police Department arrested Susan Holloway, Jessica Bennett, and Jennifer Bennett on Aug. 19 in connection with the fatal shooting of 33-year-old Daryl Willis Jr.<\/p>\n
The arrests stem from a shooting on May 20 at the intersection of Harbour Road and Chesapeake Avenue. According to police, the incident resulted from a dispute over property that Willis allegedly stole from Jessica and Bennett\u2019s mother the night before the shooting.<\/p>\n
Officers responded to the intersection at approximately 6:59 p.m. on May 20 and found a vehicle crashed into a tree in front of a home. Inside the vehicle, officers found Willis suffering from a gunshot wound. He was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center, where he died from his injuries.<\/p>\n
Investigators learned that Willis had agreed to return the property and went back to the residence the day after the alleged theft.
