On October 12, 2023, 34-year-old Dexter Eugene Owens was fatally shot inside the doorway of an apartment at the Dover Gardens Apartments in Orlando, Florida. Police responded after a 6:11 p.m. 911 call about a loud disturbance and a subsequent call reporting a man had been killed. Officers found Owens with several gunshot wounds and unconscious at the scene.

The investigation led to the arrest of 25-year-old Trevon Anthony Lamons in Hollywood, Florida. Lamons faces charges including second-degree murder with a firearm, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and shooting into a dwelling; he is being held in the Broward County Jail pending extradition to Orange County. Lamons previously was involved in an officer-involved shooting in Orlando in 2016 when he was 17.

Authorities have not released additional details about what precipitated the shooting or the events inside the apartment. If anyone has information about Owens, his movements that evening, or the incident, please share tips with the investigators handling the case.
