One of the men taken into custody after a North Fort Myers shooting has been charged with first degree murder. The shooting happened Friday afternoon near Island Vista Estates.
Deputies say the victim, 20-year-old Brandon Dickey, and 19-year Kenneth Mitchell Jr. had been arguing over money. The two were planning on meeting to have a fist fight.
Witnesses say when Mitchell arrived, he pulled a handgun and fired two shots at Dickey. One of the shots struck Dickey in the chest, killing him.
According to deputies, Mitchell fled the scene in a red Ford Explorer. About an hour after the shooting, Mitchell and another man were taken into custody near the entrance to Island Vista Estates. They were in a Dodge Stratus at that time.
Several witnesses identified Mitchell as the shooter.
The other man in the Dodge was not arrested or charged.
Deputies say Mitchell told at least one person he planned to shoot Dickey instead of fight him. He is charged with one count of first degree murder.
It''s Mitchell''s sixth arrest in the last 13 months, according the sheriff''s office records. He''s charged with a variety of theft and assault charges in the previous cases
