Parking space murder suspect gives up

TAMPA -- David Rolon, the 41-year-old Tampa man wanted on a second-degree murder charge in the shooting death of his neighbor, turned himself in this afternoon, police say.

Detectives this weekend issued a warrant for the arrest of Rolon, of 718 E Wood St. (left), after they say an argument about loud music and a parking space between Rolon and neighbor Mario Robinson, 28, ended with Robinson shot in the chest.

Neighbors said they saw Rolon's family, which includes four children of his own and three more he was supporting, packing their belongings and leaving.

Crimestoppers Tampa Bay today offered a $1,000 award for information leading to an arrest.

He turned himself in...does that mean he gets the 1,000 ?

Is still eligible for the economic stimulus package? Seven children = $2100.

Is this all the sense he has? WOW!, What an example for his children and family to witness and follow. He's an cold heartless murderer over a damn parking space it's a shame. The law should punish him to the fulliest.....Death. Eye for eye. Then he was being a coward running. Why run you did the crime now spend the time.
