Marcel Peterson, 26, was shot and killed on March 28, 2018, in Vero Beach, Florida. The shooting occurred in the early morning in the Gifford area, in the 2400 block of 43rd Street. Friends drove Peterson to the Indian River Medical Center, where he died of his injuries. The Indian River County Sheriff’s Office responded and opened an investigation.

Investigators say the shooting appears to have followed an argument between Peterson and another individual. Detectives identified 29-year-old Nathaniel Lee as a person of interest; witness interviews and scene evidence pointed toward his involvement, though no charges had been immediately filed. Separately, 38-year-old Camilla Renee Brown was arrested and charged with tampering with or destroying evidence after entering the vehicle used to transport Peterson to the hospital despite deputies’ warnings; she also faced resisting arrest and trespassing charges and was held on $1,000 bail.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to contact investigators.
