Fort Myers police have arrested a man who allegedly shot and killed a man near a Fort Myers park. Detectives arrested Tanorish Tarell Jones, 34, Wednesday afternoon following the shooting death of a man near Roberto Clemente Park, located off Henderson Avenue and Dale Street. Jones made his first court appearance Thursday morning where a public defender was appointed to his case. During the hearing, it was revealed Jones was out on bond for a previous case of aggravated assault and battery. The judge found probable cause and asked that his bond be revoked. Police cars at the scene of an active investigation. CREDIT: WINK News When authorities arrived, they discovered one person with a gunshot wound in front of a home. A WINK News crew saw authorities giving CPR to a man at the scene believed to be the shooting victim. Officers told WINK News the victim was taken to the hospital but did not survive. Police located Jones after working with other agencies to stop a car outside of Fort Myers, believed to be his vehicle. Police taped off the area of the shooting investigation just after 1 p.m. on Wednesday. Police were originally responding to a call about an assault. Multiple police cars, along with at least one Emergency Management Service truck, responded to the scene. At one point, a skirmish broke out between a group of people, and police got involved, placing a man into handcuffs. Police have not confirmed how or if this man was connected to the shooting, but he did not appear to be the suspected shooter. It remains unknown what led to the shooting, but FMPD said neighbors have been helpful in their investigation, providing them with security camera footage. Jones’ next court date happens on the morning of May 6. Stay tuned to WINKNews.com, WINK News App, streaming, and on air for any new developments on this story.
