The suspected triggerman in a Tallahassee shooting surrenders and jail may be the "safest" place for him right now.
Kevin Eberhardt turned himself in to police this morning at about 8 o'clock. Officers say the net was tightening after his picture appeared on the news last night.
Eberhardt surrendered at his mother's house on Lowell Street. It is riddled with bullet holes, but it is not clear whether those shots were fired before Tuesday's shooting or in retaliation afterward. Police won't talk about it.

HMA i agree with some of the statements you said but we as parents raise our kids to protect their self and thats if your rich or poor no we don't want them to shoot and kill each other up because white people have been doing that to us forever some kids just go a stray and it has nothing to do with the parents
Your mentality appalls and disgusts me. I am a black person along with my wife and 2 kids. Our parents came from poverty. Even though their parents were poor, they instilled a good work ethic and values in them. Racism has nothing to do with why this man did what he did. If you are looking to blame someone other than him, look at his parents.
Who cares? Just another dumba** tax payers now have to feed. The state should do us all a favor and fast track the death penalty.
