FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) A 15-year-old boy is accused of forcing a South Florida real estate agent to drive to an ATM and withdraw cash before fatally shooting him last month.
The teen was arrested Friday while in custody on an unrelated case and charged with second-degree murder and robbery. The Broward State Attorney s Office announced Tuesday they are charging him as an adult in the Feb. 1 killing of Stefano Barbosa, 37.
Stefano had just obtained signatures from a customer that afternoon when the teen approached him with a gun. Prosecutors said the teen forced Barbosa to drive to a Bank of America machine and make two withdrawals of $500.
