Florida man accused of 2 murders in 2 counties on same day

A Florida man is accused of killing two people on the same day in two different counties, authorities said.

Ian Jackson, 26, of Miramar, was arrested Wednesday, WPLG reported. Jackson is accused in connection with the murders of Roy Gissendanner in Broward County and O'Neill William in Miami-Dade County, the Sun-Sentinel reported.

Gissendanner, 63, was found by Broward County deputies on June 22 with two gunshot wounds, including one to his head, the newspaper reported. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

While investigating, deputies learned that Jackson was driving Gissendanner's Ford Taurus, WPLG reported.

Deputies then learned that the Miami Gardens Police Department was investigating the fatal shooting of William at a gas station in Miami-Dade County, the Sun-Sentinel reported.

“This incident was captured on surveillance footage and shows Jackson arriving at the gas station in the vehicle stolen from Gissendanner, where he is seen confronting a second victim,” the Broward County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.

Each department filed warrants for Jackson's arrest, the Sun-Sentinel reported. Jackson was arrested in Broward County and was taken to Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in Miami-Dade County, where he is being held without bail
