Polk County 2nd Degree Murder Suspect Caught After Reportedly Hiding In A Kissimmee Shed

In the early morning hours of Saturday, July 29th, the Davenport Police Department responded to a call in the area of Fuller Street West in Davenport. Officers responded to the neighborhood to find a woman unresponsive in a vehicle. The Davenport Fire Department also responded to the scene and subsequently transported the victim to Advent Health-Heart of Florida Hospital. The victim was declared deceased by medical staff on Saturday, July 29, 2023 at 0422 hours. Based upon her injuries, she is believed to be the victim of a homicide.

Polk County Sheriff’s Office homicide detectives assisted the Davenport Police Department by conducting the homicide investigation.

Polk County deputies advised the victim is a 35 year old Davenport woman. A reward was offered for information leading to an arrest. That arrest came this week due to a tip on the location of homicide suspect Demond Lavette Moore, 49. The tip was relayed to the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office as the suspect was reportedly hiding out in a Kissimmee shed. Deputies we’re able to apprehend Moore and he has been transported back to Polk County to face trial.

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office would like to acknowledge the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office and the anonymous tipster who helped bring about Moore’s arrest.
