Trial begins for brothers accused in interstate shooting that killed teen

It started as a neighborhood beef between a 17-year-old and two brothers that spilled onto Interstate 4 last summer. On August 24, 2020, prosecutors say, 21-year-old Jaris and 23-year-old Jarkese Youngblood spotted their victim, Ta'Zion Levison, riding in a dark-colored Nissan sedan on the interstate. One brother pulled out a gun and started shooting.

Hillsborough County public defender Donna Perry pointed out the state's only eyewitness, who was driving with the victim, at first lied to police about it.

Prosecutors say the brothers sold the car to a junkyard after the shooting. They face charges of first-degree murder, shooting into a vehicle, and tampering with physical evidence.
