Broward Sheriff’s Office homicide detectives are hoping a reward of up to $10,000 will lead to an arrest in the murder of Bobby Abernathy II, which occurred in April. Broward Crime Stoppers has recently increased the reward for information in Abernathy’s case.
Investigators are also releasing a surveillance photo of a light-colored SUV believed to be connected to the homicide.
On April 10, at approximately 1:17 a.m., Broward County Regional Communications received a report of a shooting victim at 1200 S.W. 11th Way in Deerfield Beach. Deputies and Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue responded to the scene, where they found Abernathy in a parking lot with gunshot wounds. He was transported to Broward Health North hospital with life-threatening injuries but was pronounced dead later that day.
Authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward to help solve this case.
