A witness watched the whole thing play out. On Saturday night at 8:20 p.m. behind a bodega on Maple Street facing Maria Luna Park, an onlooker watched as a man wearing an orange shirt and black jacket jumped 49-year-old Randy Wyatt.
The attacker hit Wyatt in the back of the head, then stood over his prone body, kicking Wyatt in the face with steel-toed boots until he lost consciousness. Wyatt's body was found behind a dumpster. He was taken to Parkland with multiple facial fractures and severe brain damage.
The witness recognized the attacker from the neighborhood, but wasn't sure of his name. A detective asked around and later identified him as 31-year old Echols Andre Lavell Dupree. He'd reportedly been mad that Wyatt owed him $50.
Wyatt died on Monday, meaning Dupree is now a murder suspect. Problem is, he's still on the loose. So be on the lookout and steer clear of his steel-toed boots.
