JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The state attorney’s office announced Thursday a major break in the shocking murder of Florida father of four Jared Bridegan, who was gunned down in front of his toddler more than a year ago.
Melissa Nelson, the state attorney for Florida’s Fourth Judicial District, and the Jacksonville Beach Police Department are expected to disclose a “significant development” in the shooting death of Bridegan at a press conference Thursday afternoon.
Bridegan, 33, was executed Feb. 16, 2022, in an upscale suburb of Jacksonville Beach in front of his then-2-year-old daughter, Bexley, when he stepped out of car to move a tire in the road.
