Alfred Lewis Lance III was 29 and a resident of Jacksonville, Florida, when he was found shot to death in the parking lot of his apartment complex, Kings Trail Apartments at 3770 Toledo Road, on October 14, 2016. The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office responded about 9:20 p.m.; Fire and Rescue pronounced him dead at the scene. The shooting was immediately treated as a homicide and investigated by local law enforcement.

Lance’s family later pursued a wrongful death lawsuit against the property owners and managers of Kings Trail Apartments, naming Tzadik Acquisitions, LLC, Tzadik Management Group, LLC, and related entities. The complaint alleged inadequate security measures at the complex on the night of the shooting. Separate litigation involved United Specialty Insurance Company seeking a declaratory judgment about whether its commercial general liability policy covered the property at issue.

No detailed public updates about suspects or arrests were released. If anyone knew Alfred, his movements that night, or observed suspicious activity at Kings Trail Apartments on October 14, 2016, please share what was seen or heard.
