On April 19, 2016, 18-year-old Ledarius Fitzgerald was shot and killed in West Palm Beach, Florida, around 5:15 a.m. He was found lying in the street at the intersection of 15th Street and Division Avenue and was pronounced dead at the scene; the autopsy found multiple gunshot wounds to the chest and back.

Investigators say 24-year-old Javon Lusane, known as Hittman, was arrested and charged with second-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Witnesses reported Lusane and others were in a white Chrysler 300, stopped when they spotted Fitzgerald (known as Little D), and that Lusane briefly spoke with Fitzgerald before shooting him multiple times. Police described their case as relying on witness statements, cellphone data, area video showing a white Chrysler entering and leaving the scene, and a Facebook photo Lusane posted of a gun matching the caliber used in the shooting. Lusane denied involvement and was held without bail; he had prior felony convictions.

This was West Palm Beach’s first homicide of 2016 and one of 64 homicides in Palm Beach County that year. Does anyone who knew Ledarius or who was in that neighborhood that morning have information to share?
