Maurice A. Cole, a 20-year-old from Colorado Springs, Colorado, was shot and killed on July 27, 2018, in the parking lot of an apartment complex at 4030 78th Avenue in Pinellas Park, Florida. He had been staying at the complex since mid-July and was speaking with another individual in the parking lot when an altercation led to the shooting. Cole was taken to a local hospital and later died of his injuries.

Pinellas Park police described the shooting as stemming from a dispute over a drug deal rather than a random attack. Investigators arrested 24-year-old Derrion Vontrell Rich of St. Petersburg and charged him with first-degree murder after gathering evidence that linked him to the crime; records note Rich had prior felony and narcotics-related charges dating back to 2013.

Does anyone have information about Cole’s time at the complex in mid-July or witnessed the incident in that parking lot?
