Suspect sought: Police release surveillance video in fatal North Lauderdale robbery
Florida’s Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO) homicide detectives have released surveillance video of the fatal robbery of a North Lauderdale clerk. Detectives hope someone can identify the suspect who killed Ayub Ali.
Around 12:40 p.m. on July 17, the suspect entered Aunt Molly’s Food Store, located at 1691 S. State Road 7. He took money from the cash register and left.
The thief returned shortly after and shot the 61-year-old Ali.
BSO deputies from North Lauderdale and paramedics from Tamarac Fire Rescue responded to the scene. Ali was transported to Broward Health Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.
The suspect wore a black vest, reddish-orange shorts with a black and white stripe on the sides, reddish-orange slides and a skull cap with “Miami” stitched on the front.
Anyone with information is asked to contact BSO Homicide Detective James Hayes at 954-321-4231.
