The man who opened fire and shot a Miramar chef to death late last month turned himself in, police said.

Frederick Eugene, 33, surrendered to police Thursday night and was booked into jail on a second-degree murder charge in the killing of Jimmy Fleurimond, Miramar Police said.

Officers responded to the scene near the 6300 block of Southwest 27th Street just after 1 a.m. on January 31st, where they found Fleurimond dead from an apparent gunshot wound.

Fleurimond, 31, had worked as a chef and was the father of four children, including a 4-month-old daughter, police said.

Miramar Police issued an arrest warrant for Eugene in the case on Wednesday, saying he could be armed and dangerous. Investigators did not give a motive for the shooting.

Eugene was being held without bond Friday, jail records showed. Attorney information wasn't available.
