TAMPA, Fla. — An arrest was made nearly two weeks after a man's body was found in a ditch in Tampa.
The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office said deputies arrested Dayhan Ruenes Vinet, 32, for the June 4 murder of Yalexander Jimenez Felipe, 47.
Felipe was found in a ditch with upper body trauma near East Chelsea Street and Rachel Falls Drive around 6:34 a.m. He was pronounced dead at the scene by deputies.
Vinet was arrested on June 14 and is facing multiple charges, including first-degree murder with a weapon, dealing in stolen property and more.
"I hope this arrest can help our victim's family begin their healing process," said Sheriff Chad Chronister. "As your sheriff, I can assure you that our detectives never rest until justice is served."
"I felt like it was really strong-arm robbery."
Drivers hit with school bus camera fines in Polk County are frustrated that they must first pay more before appealing their ticket.
