Edgar Harrell, 31, of Lehigh Acres was shot and killed on July 12, 2018. Deputies found him fatally wounded inside a car at a home in the 2800 block of 52nd Street West. A woman and her infant daughter were also injured in the same incident; the woman suffered gunshot wounds and the infant sustained cuts to her head from flying glass.

Investigators tied the shooting to a domestic dispute that began when Kerome Keniel Brown, 26, became angry after the woman called a friend to pick her and her toddler up. When that friend, Edgar Harrell, arrived, Brown shot him and also shot the woman in the leg. Brown attempted to flee by vehicle but was stopped and taken into custody by the Lee County Sheriff’s Office.

The case raises questions about what led to the argument escalating so quickly and who else might have seen events at the home that day. If anyone has information about the shooting or knew Edgar Harrell, please come forward to share what they know.
