JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The suspect in an April 18 shooting on New Kings Road was found in Orlando four days later, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said.

Sergio Espada, 23, was transferred to the Duval County Jail Monday.

He is accused of shooting and killing 22-year-old Killian Barnette.

According to JSO, police were called to the scene of a person shot on April 18. Barnette was in the street with a gunshot wound to his torso. He was rushed to the hospital, but died of his injuries.

Detectives reviewed evidence and found two key witnesses, who identified the shooter, JSO said.

The witnesses told police the two had been engaged in a physical fight. Afterward, Espada pulled out a gun and shot Barnette a single time in the torso before driving away, JSO said.

He was found and detained in Orlando last Tuesday. 

He was transferred back to Jacksonville Monday and is now in the Duval County Jail. 

“We’ll continue to work closely with the State Attorney’s Office to bring justice to Barnette’s loved ones,” JSO said.
