Ocoee Police Arrest Suspect Accused of Second-Degree Murder in 2023 Shooting of Army Veteran

After a year-long investigation, Ocoee Police have arrested in the shooting death of Army veteran Gregory C. Reed. Kendrick J. Anderson, 27, stands accused of second-degree murder for the incident that occurred on November 9, 2023. The arrest was made on November 8, as reported byWESH.

Details emerging from the case cite surveillance footage, cellphone location data, and eyewitnesses as instrumental in leading investigators to Anderson. Reed was tragically discovered with multiple gunshot wounds in the parking lot of a Publix following a crash that seemed to stem from a violent encounter at a gas station. This sticky web of evidence encompassed five 9mm bullet casings and shattered glass at the scene, painting a sad picture of Reed’s last moments. The pivotal break in the case, as detailed byClickOrlando, came after the suspect vehicle was traced back to maintenance records at a car dealership.

While the legal proceedings move forward, the emotional toll has been immeasurable for Reed’s family. His cousin, Tyrone Scott, stated, as perClickOrlando, “For somebody to hurt this man like they did, it is wrong. He didn t deserve that.” Similarly, Reed’s daughter, Diedre Anderson, expressed the devastation of her father s untimely death, emphasizing his dedication to family and work.

Despite the weight of the accusations, no motion for pretrial detention has been filed against Anderson, leading to the court setting his bond at $50,000 after deeming pre-trial detention inappropriate.
