Murat Oziros, 54, was shot to death on March 4, 2014, at his tire shop, Florida Sunshine Tires and Auto Center on Avenue E in Riviera Beach, Florida. He and an 18-year-old employee, Deondre McCoy, were closing the shop when an armed assailant opened fire; both men were fatally wounded and died after being taken to the hospital.

Investigators later found that nothing appeared to have been taken in the robbery except for a gold necklace belonging to Oziros. In 2024 the Riviera Beach Police Department’s cold case unit matched DNA from guns seized in an unrelated West Palm Beach case to two men, Jeffrey Brown, 35, and Lavon Heath, 33, and linked shell casings to the scene. A grand jury indicted Brown and Heath on March 28, 2024, for first-degree murder, armed robbery, and being felons in possession of firearms.

Anyone who knew Murat, worked at or near the shop, or has information about the night of March 4, 2014, is asked to come forward.
