Robert Lee Price III, 25, was shot and killed outside a residence at 131 Aurora Street in Cocoa, Florida, on July 9, 2014. Witnesses say Dontavis Olajuwon Grimes and a second, unidentified man arrived in a car, exited and began firing multiple shots. Grimes reportedly taunted Price; Price tried to walk away but was pursued and shot multiple times by both men before the assailants fled in their vehicle.

Dontavis Olajuwon Grimes was arrested on July 14, 2014, and charged with first-degree murder. The Brevard County Grand Jury returned a first-degree murder indictment against Grimes. Antonio Hilton was later implicated and both men were tried together as co-defendants. Testimony and surveillance footage were introduced at trial, and a jury found both Grimes and Hilton guilty of first-degree premeditated murder. The motive was not made clear in testimony.
