JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office is searching an 18-year-old murder suspect believed to be armed and dangerous.
JSO and SWAT spent seven hours surrounding a home believed to be occupied by Oneil Exantus at 6211 Shady Oak Dr. on Thursday, but he was nowhere to be found.
Neighbors said he lived at the home with his parents but has been estranged from them for a long time.
A neighbor, Jamey Dames, told First Coast News he had tried mentoring Exantus, but to no avail.
"We tried to talk to him and get his life in order," he said. "After a while, he just kept making left turns instead of right turns."
JSO has not disclosed the name of the victim in the murder case.
If you see Exantus, do not approach. Instead, call JSO at 904-630-500 or call Crime Stoppers at 866-845-TIPS.
