Deondre McCoy, an 18-year-old African American man, was fatally shot on March 4, 2014, in Riviera Beach, Florida. McCoy and 54-year-old Murat Oziros were closing the Florida Sunshine Tires and Auto Center on Avenue E at about 8 p.m. when a gun-wielding assailant approached and opened fire. Both men were taken to St. Mary’s Medical Center in West Palm Beach and died of their injuries.

The murders remained unsolved for years until the Riviera Beach police cold case unit, formed in November 2022, reopened the investigation. DNA testing and weapons analysis later linked two men, Jeffrey Brown and Lavon Heath, to the crime. On March 28, 2024, both were indicted on first-degree murder, armed robbery, and being felons in possession of firearms; investigators say the victims were robbed, including the theft of a gold necklace from Oziros.

If anyone knew Deondre, Murat, or observed the business or surrounding area on the evening of March 4, 2014, please share what might still be helpful to investigators.
