Video Shows Possible Witness To Murder, Police Say

TEMPLE TERRACE, FL — As Temple Terrace Police continue to search for clues in the April 13 shooting death of Kagan Dane McFarland, they’re turning to the public for help.

The agency on Friday released a video that shows a person riding a bicycle near the scene of the shooting. The bicyclist was seen riding through the Coca-Cola Enterprises parking lot at 5901 E. Fowler Ave. shortly before 1 a.m. That is approximately the same time McFarland is said to have left the Lazy Brew Bar & Grill.

“McFarland attempted to take a shortcut through the alley behind CiCi’s Pizza, 5771 E. Fowler Ave., when he was shot multiple times,” the agency wrote in an email to media.

McFarland was found later that morning and died at Tampa General Hospital.

The motive for the shooting remains unknown.

“Police believe the bicyclist seen in the security video was in the area close to the time of the shooting, and may have information that could help solve this case,” the email said.

The bicyclist is believed to be a young, white male. He was wearing a dark T-shirt, and long, dark pants. Police say he is not considered a suspect.

Anyone who might know the identity of the bicyclist, or who has information in the case is asked to call the Temple Terrace Police Department at 813-989-7110.
