North Port Police are looking for information on a shooting homicide that took place on 75 back in March

 

NPPD INFO NEEDED:

 

On March 7, 2020, NPPD responded to the interstate at around 3:45 a.m. regarding a subject who had been shot while driving south in that area. The incident took place at MM 177 on I-75 southbound, between Sumter Blvd and Toledo Blade Blvd.

 

The victim had been shot while driving south in that area, and died at the scene just south of the Toledo Blade exit. We believe the victim, Javaris Miller, was targeted by a group of men from the Lee County area. It is believed two vehicles are associated with the shooting death of Mr. Miller. There is a witness in the case who is cooperating. Evidence was located along I-75 and is being processed.

 

Mr. Miller was driving his 2019 Cadillac XTS (example pictured below) from “The Hall” nightclub in Palmetto and drove through North Port on March 7, 2020 at approximately 3:30 am. If anyone was driving on I-75 during this time frame and has any information on either of the two vehicles chasing the victim, please contact Detective Chippendale at 941-429-7379 or [email protected].
