TPD Closes Shooting Investigation
March 01, 2019
On February 10, 2019 TPD responded to Café Shisha reference to two victims suffering from gunshot wounds, with one of those victims succumbing to their injuries. TPD's Violent Crimes Unit later identified Darrel Wyche, Jr. as the suspected shooter.
After consultation with the State Attorney's Office, the investigative findings determined Darrel Wyche Jr. was acting in self-defense, under Florida's Stand Your Ground Law. While justified in the shooting, the State Attorney's Office approved the probable cause to charge Darrel Wyche Jr. with Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon. He is currently in the Leon County Detention Facility. TPD would like to thank all those who assisted with this investigation.
