BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. (AP) - An 18-year-old Florida man remains jailed without bond for allegedly murdering two street preachers in Boynton Beach two weeks ago.
Police say 24-year-old Tite Sufra and 23-year-old Stephen Ocean had been sharing the gospel with Jeriah Woody for about 15 minutes when he got a phone call.
Woody left, but then allegedly started walking toward the two. When Sufra approached, Woody allegedly shot him in the head. Ocean ran, and police say Woody shot him in the back, then walked up and shot him again -- this time in the head at point-blank range.
Police said a witness identified Woody, who is known by the street name "Plug." He surrendered on two counts of first-degree murder.
