DAVENPORT, Fla. — Detectives with the Polk County Sheriff's Office are working to identify a suspect seen on a doorbell camera related to the murder of a man in Davenport.
The sheriff's office said 29-year-old Xavier Antonio Johnson, of St. Pete, was fatally shot on April 13 during a drug deal in an Airbnb. The sheriff's office said Johnson and his associates had been selling marijuana from the home on Acorn Court since April 8.
Around 8:30 on April 13, authorities said unknown suspects went into the home and shot the victim. Doorbell video showed three men carrying Johnson out of the house, but the sheriff's office has not named them suspects.
