From Boca News Now:
DEERFIELD BEACH, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Source: BSO) — Broward Sheriff’s Office homicide detectives are releasing a photo of a person they want to speak to regarding the murder of Jahseh Onfroy, also known as XXXTentacion.
The person detectives are interested in talking to is 22-year-old Robert Allen. They want to find out what he knows about the murder. The photograph is taken from surveillance video at RIVA Motorsports in Deerfield Beach the day Onfroy was shot.
At least one of the suspects fired a gun, striking Onfroy. Both of the suspects fled in a dark-color SUV. Onfroy was transported to Broward Health North where he was pronounced dead.
Homicide detectives have recovered the 2017 Dodge Journey that was used to block Onfroy as he was leaving RIVA Motorsports shortly before 4 p.m. June 18 when he was approached by two armed suspects in an apparent robbery.
In just more than 48 hours after the murder, Dedrick Devonshay Williams was arrested Wednesday, June 20, following a traffic stop in Pompano Beach.
Homicide detectives are seeking additional suspects. The investigation continues.
Anyone with information is asked to contact BSO homicide detectives Walt Foster or John Curcio at (954) 321-4210. If you wish to remain anonymous, contact Broward Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS (8477) or online at browardcrimestoppers.org. Anonymous tips that lead to an arrest are eligible for a reward of up to $3,000.

Thoughts? I am placing Allen in the fugitives on TV section (he is only wanted for questioning as of this posting date- 6/29/2018- but that still makes him a fugitive) since he is part of the overall national news case of the slaying of a famous rapper. Also I just wanted to say a few things:
1) Some people on social media have not had kind words or much sympathy for Onfroy (aka XXXTentacion). He was in constant trouble with the law, with a bevy of charges including battery of a pregnant woman. The fact of the matter is whether he is the most sympathetic of victims or not, it does not give a human being or human beings the right to take his life. (He was also only 20 years old, and while there was no guarantee, he was of a young enough age to turn his life around).
2) The alleged motive was robbery- not a targeted hit. This means the victim could have been anyone- a famous rapper, a teenage honor roll student etc... That is what makes Robert Allen- if he turns out to be more than just a guy wanted for questioning- an extreme danger to the public- since the victim could have been ANYONE.
So if anyone knows Robert Allen's whereabouts, they need to do the right thing and turn himself in. If Robert Allen has his own side of the story to tell, he needs to turn himself in rather than what appears to be currently going into hiding.
**********UPDATE**********
Allen has now been captured but as of July 26th, a newly recently indicted suspect, Trayvon Newsome, remained at large. As a result, this thread has been edited to shift the focus from Allen to Newsome. Since it was the contact agency given in news articles for Allen, our advice for anyone with information on Newsome's whereabouts would also be to contact Broward County Crime Stoppers.
