Darius Coon, 31, was found shot to death inside a parked SUV on the 10th floor of a downtown Miami parking garage at 230 NE 4th Street on the morning of July 19, 2025. A foul odor from the garage’s upper levels prompted officers to check the vehicle, where two people were discovered with multiple gunshot wounds: Coon and a 35-year-old woman identified as Charlotte Rodriguez.

Coon’s family say he had been reported missing on July 16 after he stopped answering calls; they remember him as a devoted father and a football coach who had moved to Miami from Detroit only a few months earlier. Valuables in the SUV appeared undisturbed, and investigators say the bodies may have been in the vehicle for several days, so detectives are reviewing surveillance from the area and asking anyone who was in the garage between July 16 and July 19 or who saw the victims downtown to contact police.

Does anyone who knew Darius or Charlotte or who was near that garage during those days have information to share?
