Collier County Sheriff’s Office detectives arrested a 38-year-old man Tuesday in the March shooting death of a man in Immokalee.

Gonzalo Herrera of Hope Circle in Immokalee is in the Collier County jail facing charges of second-degree murder.

Deputies responded to a report of shots fired in the 1900 block of Alexander Circle shortly after 9 p.m. on March 13. Once there, they found the 36-year-old victim sprawled in a parking lot with gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

An autopsy concluded that his death was caused by multiple gunshot wounds.

Witness statements and evidence led detectives to suspect Herrera. He and the victim knew each other and a family dispute led to the shooting, detectives said.

The identity of the victim is protected under the Florida statute known as Marsy’s Law.
