“There’s a lot of people here shopping at the mall, which means there’s a lot of witnesses that could potentially help us bring this case to a successful resolution,” said Ocala Police Chief Mike Balken.
Ocala police have a warrant for his arrest and have a $10,000 reward for information leading to his arrest.
