A man is accused of shooting and killing his former stepfather at a mansion amid the 4th of July weekend. Darien Massad Turner, 23, sits in the Broward County jail in Florida as of Sunday, online records show.

Police reportedly said they found his former stepfather, Christian Colon, 44, dead from gunshot wounds at the home.

Cops said they got a call about the shooting at the residence along the 100 block of Nurmi Drive at around 10:50 a.m. on Saturday, according to Fox Miami affiliate WSVN . The outlet described the neighborhood as having various multimillion dollar homes.

Jesus Sarmiento, who works in the area, reportedly characterized the shooting as out of character for the locale.

“It’s not normal,” he told the outlet in Spanish.

“I heard someone got, like, shot,” Raul Fernandez, who was visiting the neighborhood, told NBC Miami affiliate WTVJ . “[This is] some Miami Vice-type stuff. This is not something I’d ever expect. I don’t know how to take something like this.”

He described waking up to find police “everywhere,” according to WSVN .

“We have kids over there,” he said. “We have little kids. Just to know someone got shot, it’s like, wow.”

WTVJ said people inside the home where Colon died declined to speak to them about the incident.

Turner faces a count of premeditated murder. Police did not immediately suggest a motive or present a sequence of events leading up to the shooting. The arrest affidavit is not available online.
