  • 7 years ago
LAUDERHILL, FLORIDA — Police are on the lookout for a ruthless killer who repeatedly shot a man in broad daylight on Martin Luther King Day.

The Belleville News-Democrat reports that Gary Wallock and his girlfriend had just left a seafood market in Lauderhill, Florida, not knowing that a cold-blooded killer was lying in wait just around the corner.

The gunman made his move as the couple stood near their car, running up to Wallock and firing at the back of his head. The 34-year-old tried to make a run for it as more shots rang out, but ultimately fell to the ground.

The shooter kept the bullets coming, repeatedly firing at Wallock for up to 13 times. When the girlfriend tried to run away, she was shot at twice.

Both shots missed, and instead of pursuing her, the killer took off. He got into a getaway car across the street, a blue Nissan Altima which authorities believe had at least two other people inside.

Police estimate that a total of 25 or more shots were fired. They released CCTV footage of the shooting in hopes of getting more information. They later identified the suspect as 26-year-old Trace Obrian Walker.
