FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Police are still searching for a man who shot another man in the leg over the summer in Fort Lauderdale.
The Fort Lauderdale Police Department released new and enhanced surveillance video of the June 2 shooting that left Jamar Mousakheel, 31, dead.
Police said Mousakheel was visiting a business in the area of 231 Almond Ave. around 11:15 p.m. that night when he approached an unknown man in the parking lot and an argument ensued.
Surveillance video shows Mousakheel walking toward a car with the man before a third man shows up.
The men began to disperse when the first suspect walked up to the victim and shot him in the leg.

The gunman then fled the scene in his car.
Surveillance video shows Mousakheel sitting on the ground when he is approached by a second suspect, who shoots him once in the head and then flees on foot.
Police said that suspect, identified as Gerald Goucher, 44, of Fort Lauderdale, was arrested June 5 on a murder charge. He remains held at the Broward County Main Jail.
Much of the incident report has been redacted by authorities and a motive for the shootings are unclear.
The first suspect has not been identified.
“Without identifying who that first shooter is we’re missing that crucial piece and we’re trying to give the family closure, conclude the investigation to figure out exactly what happened, and what we need is the public’s help and someone to come forward who recognizes this individual so we can kind of bring the investigation full circle,” Detective Ali Adamson said.
Anyone with information about the suspect’s identity is asked to call Fort Lauderdale Police Detective J. Jaggers at 954-828-5970 or FLPD Sgt. S. Novak at 954-828-5556.
