PASCO COUNTY, Fla. — The Pasco County Sheriff’s Office (PCSO) arrested a shooting suspect on Sunday who was accused of killing a man.
Deputies said the shooting happened at the 5000 block of Hill Drive in the Zephyrhills area.
PCSO said they believe that an argument between two adult men, who knew each other, escalated, leading to one man to shoot the other at about 4:45 a.m. on Sunday.
The victim was taken for medical attention but was pronounced dead. The suspect fled before deputies arrived.
PCSO said Sunday evening that they arrested Joel Heredia, 39, for 2nd degree homicide and felony possession of a firearm in connection to the shooting.
