Man Shot And Killed Outside Lauderhill Farm Store, Police Say

Lauderhill police say a Farm Store store clerk fatally shot a man after an argument on Monday.

Sameer Rashid, 33, was taken into custody shortly after the incident. He now faces a charge of premeditated murder.

Officials said Rashid shot 32-year-old Stevens Jeangilles multiple times just after 8:30 a.m. in the 4200 block of Northwest 12th Street.

Jeangilles later died of his injuries at Broward Health Medical Center.

According to witnesses, Jeangilles ran from the Farm Store to nearby parking lot.

Surveillance video showed that Rashid followed in an SUV, police said. On the video, Rashid gets out of the SVU and draws a weapon, causing Jeangilles to raise his hands in the air and drop his phone, police said.

Rashid then fired multiple shots at Jeangilles, police said. 

After Jeangilles fell to the ground, Rashid is shown on the video firing additional shots into the victim, police said.

Police said they arrested Rashid at the Farm Store minutes after, where he was found with a .45-caliber handgun in his possession.
