According to investigators, Justin Kessel robbed an adult male at
gunpoint in the parking lot of 7-Eleven before entering the business and
robbing the clerk. While exiting the business, witnesses say Kessel ran
back toward the male robbery victim, who had retrieved a firearm from
his vehicle. Detectives said the victim fired multiple shots, injuring
Kessel. The victim told investigators that, as he proceeded to hold
Kessel at gunpoint until deputies arrived, another subject in a gray
2025 Honda CR-V attempted to run him over. In fear for his life, the
victim stated he jumped out of the moving vehicle’s way and fired
additional shots.
Kessel was taken into
custody and transported by Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue to an area
hospital for treatment. The adult male victim was detained for
questioning and later released.
During the
investigation, the CR-V was located by detectives in the 100 block of
Phippen Waiters Road in Dania Beach. The driver of the vehicle, Melvin
Presley, sustained multiple gunshot wounds and was transported by
paramedics to Memorial Regional Hospital for treatment. He was later
pronounced deceased.
