JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office said Saturday that a man has been charged with murder in connection to a Jan. 8 shooting on Dunn Avenue. While police didn't say who he's accused of killing, that's the same day and location where a popular Jacksonville hairstylist was shot to death.
Keith Keglar, 20, remains in Duval County jail on no bond.
Meka Robinson, the mother of 24-year-old Tevin Robinson, told First Coast News Sunday that detectives reported to her that Keglar's arrest is connected to her son's death.
Tevin Robinson was shot in a parking lot on Dunn Avenue. JSO has not released any details related to Keglar's arrest, only that he's been charged with murder.
As the family continues to grieve, Meka Robinson said police haven't disclosed a motive in her son's death .
She's angry.
“I wish that he could see how he hurt me," she said. "Why do I have to come out to the graveyard to see my son? You know he didn’t deserve that."
The mother says she can finally get some rest knowing a suspect has been arrested.
“I had so many sleepless nights. I haven’t been asleep since my son got murdered because I wanted to know who did this to him. So I went to tell him to go rest in peace ... and that I wasn’t going to give up," Meka Robinson said.
She misses hearing Tevin's voice over the phone and spending time with him while he did her hair, she said.
“I go out to the shop get my hair done. That would be me and his time. You know we talk. I ask him what's going on. I'm just going to miss all that about him."
