Suspect Arrested For Golf Course Murder

Posted on 08 December 2011 by JLusk

Broward Sheriff’s Office Homicide Unit detectives have made an arrest in a golfer’s murder from earlier this year.

On January 13, 2011, BSO deputies responded to the Deerfield Country Club after a golfer was shot near the 17th hole early that evening. Lataurus Randall, 35, of Deerfield Beach, was golfing with his cousin Melvin Philpart, when they were approached by two armed and masked suspects that came out of the bushes. During the course of a robbery attempt, Randall was shot and critically injured by one of the gunmen. The two suspects fled into a residential neighborhood to the east of the 17th hole. The wounded golfer was taken by then-Deerfield Beach Fire Rescue to North Broward Medical Center, where he died the next morning.

In the days and months that followed, BSO homicide detectives pursued the search for Randall’s killers. Through the course of the investigation, numerous leads and witness statements led them to Lamont Mayweather, 25, and another man, Charles T. Moye, 25. While Mayweather has been charged with murder while engaged in a felony, Moye is only considered a person of interest at this time.

If anyone has additional information about this homicide, they should contact BSO Det. John Berrena at 954-321-4210 or Broward Crime Stoppers, anonymously, at 954-493-TIPS (8477).
