Brandon Leo, 22, of Orlando, was shot and killed in Sanford, Florida, on the evening of July 20, 2024. He had gone to Sanford to sell a pair of Apple AirPods after arranging the transaction online and arrived at a residence near West 3rd Street and Pomegranate Avenue around 9:30 p.m. After pulling his white pickup truck into the driveway, he was approached on the driver’s side by at least two individuals. As he tried to back his truck out, several gunshots were fired.

Leo was struck, and his vehicle crashed into a nearby retention pond. Officers found the truck partially submerged and Leo deceased inside from an apparent gunshot wound. Investigators determined the house where the meeting was arranged was empty and believe the online sale was a setup. Sanford Police Chief Cecil Smith called the killing senseless and said a family is grieving the loss of their son over a pair of headphones.

Did anyone in the Sanford area see activity near West 3rd Street and Pomegranate Avenue that night or have information about the arranged meetup?
