Police: Flirting Leads To Man's Death

Local10 reports:

MIAMI -- Police say a man was shot to death while driving on Interstate 395, shortly after flirting with a car full of girls.

Police said Malcolm Marshall was in the back seat of a car, and was flirting with several girls in another car driving on I-395 toward the beach around 1 a.m. Monday.

Miami police spokesman Delrish Moss said another vehicle, a rented Chevrolet Tahoe pulled along side Marshall's car, and Willie James Lumsdon, 37, who was in the back seat of the Tahoe, began mocking Marshall.

When the cars exited the interstate, police said Lumsdon pulled out a gun and fired at the car Marshall was riding in. Investigators said a shot went through the back window of Marshall's car, striking him in the head.

The driver said he tried to get Marshall to a hospital, but got lost, and called 911, but Marshall was already dead, police said.

Lumsdon, of Pompano Beach, is charged him with first-degree murder. Officers said he confessed to killing Marshall.
