Tyler Mike, an 18-year-old African American from Indiantown, Florida, was found shot to death on March 10, 2016, in the Booker Park neighborhood. A school bus driver discovered his body early that morning on the side of the road in a residential area as children were heading to school, increasing the shock to the community.

Witnesses reported hearing gunshots the night before, and one witness identified 17-year-old Javier Wiley as the shooter, saying Wiley rode up on a bicycle and shot Tyler multiple times. Tyler and Wiley were known to each other and were possibly meeting when the attack occurred. Wiley was arrested and charged with first-degree murder; officers recovered a gun in his possession at the time of the arrest.

Tyler’s family and friends remembered him as a caring young man; the community was left grappling with the loss and the impact of violence in the neighborhood. Does anyone who lived in Booker Park or knew Tyler have information that could shed light on what led to this killing?
