Dannie Lee Herrington Jr, 30, was fatally shot on June 14, 2018, in Lauderhill, Florida. He was found in the hallway outside his apartment at Cypress Grove Apartment Homes after an incident shortly before 8:51 PM. Evidence at the scene suggested a struggle had taken place prior to the shooting.

Herrington, also known as Red, had survived a prior violent attack in 2016 when three men forced their way into his car in Lauderdale Lakes, drove him to several locations including the 4400 block of Northwest 43rd Street and later I-75 in Weston, beat him and stole some of his clothes; he recovered at Florida Medical Center. Detectives said Herrington was involved in a violent altercation before the fatal shooting, and the Lauderhill Police Department sought the public’s help. Broward Crime Stoppers offered a reward of up to $3,000 for tips leading to an arrest. No arrests had been made at the time of the reports.

Anyone with information about Herrington’s killing is asked to come forward.
