Nicholas Mitchell, 30, of Palm Bay, Florida, was last seen on August 30, 2023, when he left home in his car and did not return. A roommate reported him missing. Mitchell had medical issues and wore a heart monitor that later assisted police in locating him.

On August 30 Mitchell met Robert Lanning III, 28, and Rene Lemos, 41, at a Circle K in Palm Bay. The three drove to a wooded area known locally as the Compound in Mitchell’s vehicle and Lemos’ truck. At some point during that outing Mitchell was shot and killed; his body was left in the woods near Southwest Saint Andre and Warbler Avenue and was located on September 8, 2023. Lanning and Lemos were later found driving Mitchell’s car and arrested after a multi-jurisdictional pursuit; both were charged in connection with Mitchell’s death. Reports say the two blamed each other for the shooting but investigators were unable to definitively tie either to the act.

Does anyone have information about Mitchell’s movements on August 30, 2023, or about activity around the Compound that day?
