Emmanuel St. Vil Derisse was shot and killed on September 6, 2021, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, near Northwest 10th Terrace and Northwest 8th Street. He was found lying unconscious in the roadway with blood coming from his neck and mouth and was pronounced dead at Broward Health Medical Center. Witnesses heard gunshots and saw his body in the street.

Authorities said the shooting may have started as a road rage incident after Derisse reportedly sped past Alphonso Brown, 42, leading to an argument. Surveillance video released in the investigation showed Derisse approaching Brown with his hands open and up, appearing unarmed; Brown was the only person seen near Derisse when the shooting occurred and was observed running away afterward. Prosecutors charged Brown with premeditated murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon; the judge ordered him held without bond. Defense counsel has disputed witness ability to identify the aggressor during the argument.

If anyone saw the events near Northwest 10th Terrace and Northwest 8th Street that day or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
