Willie Keshawn Baker III, 21, was killed on April 13, 2022, at the Overlook at Monroe Apartments in Sanford, Florida. Baker and 16-year-old Darius Dvon Moore were found near a playground with multiple gunshot wounds; both were transported to a hospital and pronounced dead on arrival. The Sanford Police Department described the incident as appearing drug-related: Baker had arranged to sell marijuana to Ernst Baptiste, and an alleged plot by Baptiste, Moore and others to rob Baker unfolded during the transaction.

During the attempted robbery, both Baker and Moore discharged firearms and were fatally shot. Authorities used a GPS mapping system called EMPACT to track Baptiste’s movements and later arrested him on multiple charges, including first-degree and second-degree murder, robbery with a firearm, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and possession of more than 20 grams of cannabis. Investigators continue to seek information and surveillance footage to identify any additional suspects.

Did anyone in the Sanford area see activity near the Overlook at Monroe Apartments that night or have surveillance that could help the investigation?
