Early morning shooting in St. Pete leaves 1 dead and 1 in custody
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - St. Petersburg detectives are investigating a shooting that left one person dead and 23-year-old Charles Bentley in custody.
Police say the victim, 29-year-old Gilbert Bush, was shot multiple times and pronounced dead after being transported to Bayfront.
It appears an argument started over a parking spot at 210 1st Ave North, say police. That's when they say the suspect pulled out a gun and shot the victim multiple times before fleeing on foot.
Police nabbed Bentley a short distance from the scene and he is now charged with second-degree murder.
The victim's next of kin has been notified.
