Suspect Named In Wednesday Shooting

May 20, 2011

Escambia Sheriff’s investigators have identified a suspect in the shooting that occurred Wednesday night on Sonnyboy Lane in Ensley.

A warrant has been signed by a judge charging Marcel K. Mickles, 34, of Pensacola with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon with a bond of $50,000.

Investigators believe the Wednesday night shooting may have been in retaliation for the deadly shooting Monday night in which Broderick J. Johnson was shot and killed and another man was injured by gunfire on Diego Circle.

The investigation into both shootings are still active and investigators are continuing to follow up on tips and leads in both shootings, according to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office.

Anyone knowing the whereabouts of Mickels is asked to call the Sheriff’s Office at (850) 436-9620 or Crime Stoppers at (850) 433-STOP.
