Investigators with the DeSoto County Sheriff\u2019s Office have reported that the body of a Black female pushed from a bridge has been positively identified.<\/p>\n

Investigators reported that 17-year-old Jerridedan Lakisha Bolds Froye<\/strong>r, known to her friends as KiKi<\/strong>, left Ybor City last Friday or Saturday night with two men and somehow found herself in Arcadia.<\/p>\n

According to reports, Bolds Froyer<\/strong> was on a bridge Sunday afternoon in Arcadia\u2019s Morgan Park when the men with her told her to jump into the water. She couldn\u2019t swim, but was allegedly pushed into the water by one of the men.<\/p>\n

Bolds Froyer<\/strong> went under, surfaced, and grabbed one of the bridge\u2019s pylons. She later lost her grip and went under. Her body washed ashore Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Deputies said Mark Huntley, Jr.<\/strong> pushed Bolds Froyer<\/strong> from the bridge. He has been charged with manslaughter. A second man, Andrew Skevington<\/strong>, was with Huntley<\/strong> and Bolds Froyer<\/strong> before she drowned and has been charged with manslaughter accessory after the fact.<\/p>\n

Authorities said Huntley<\/strong> and Skevington<\/strong> went into the water to help Bolds Froyer<\/strong>, but when they couldn\u2019t find her, they took their belongings and hers, including her identification, and left the park before deputies arrived.<\/p>\n

It was also reported that a boater helped the men out of the water and took them to shore before calling 9-1-1. The boater reported that Bolds Froyer<\/strong> had drowned, and when he was asked if Huntley<\/strong> and Skevington<\/strong> were with him, he said no, they had walked up towards the park.<\/p>\n

The boater reported seeing both men grabbed their belongings and Bolds Froyer\u2019s<\/strong> before leaving the park. He identified Skevington<\/strong> as one of the men he helped out of the water.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Skevington<\/strong> was released from jail after posting a $2,500 bond, and Huntley is still being held on a bond of $15,000.

Skevington<\/strong> allegedly was with at least three other people in Ybor City from the Arcadia area, and had never met Huntley or Bolds Froyer before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
