On Nov. 23 officers were dispatched to the area of 4300 Moncrief Road West in reference to an individual who had been shot.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Two men have been charged with murder in connection to a deadly shooting in the Moncrief area last week. 

A third man was also arrested for tampering with evidence.

Cornell Williams, 36, and Victor Williams, 31, were arrested Wednesday by the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office and charged with second-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

Roni Yazji, 28, was charged with tampering with evidence after police say he destroyed surveillance video from his store that could have potentially aided in the investigation.
