TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) — The Tallahassee Police Department has arrested a man for murder in connection to a deadly shooting in the Westgate Community in early October.
Police say the shooting happened on Oct. 2 in the 3200 block of Westgate Court.
Officers and first responders arrived on scene just after 8 a.m. and provided medical attention to one adult male that was injured in the shooting. He was taken to a local hospital for treatment and evaluation.
Police say initial information indicated that the suspect was still in the area, so officers quickly cleared and secured the scene.

Following an investigation, TPD said they found probable cause to charge a suspect, 44-year-old Robert Bruce Green Jr., in connection to the shooting.
He was arrested Wednesday and charged with homicide, attempted homicide, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
