JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A Jacksonville double murder earlier this month was part of a $20,000 gang hit, according to an arrest warrant.
The warrant provides details behind last week’s arrests of Ju’Quan Mills, 22, and Diamond Harris, 23.
The Oct. 6 double murder on Kylan Drive near Moncrief Road was a high-dollar contract killing, detectives wrote in their reports.
Detectives believe Harris lured one of the victims, 19-year-old Antonio Tillie Junior, who thought he was meeting her for a date.

Investigators accuse Mills of killing Tillie instead, collecting half of the bounty — $10,000.
Police wrote they’ve identified another suspect involved in the murder, but they’re still trying to track them down.

Tillie’s Uber driver was caught up in the violence and was also shot and killed in the car he was driving to make a living. He’s been identified as 31-year-old Bryant Grund.
“He’s caught literally in the middle of this 20k hit, unbeknownst to him,” said former JSO director Tom Hackney, a long-time homicide detective.
He said it shows the senselessness of gang violence.
“In order to successfully prosecute a case like this, you want to be able to answer as many questions as you possibly can and that does get spider webs out from there, not only who completed the hit but who set the hit,” Hackney noted.
Jacksonville police told News4JAX earlier this year they were tracking 32 active gangs with nearly 600 members, they’re responsible for a large number of the city’s shootings.

“The solution is we have to be more involved,” said AJ Jordan, the vice president of Mad Dads Jacksonville, a nonprofit that hopes to prevent violence.
AJ Jordan with Mad Dads is calling on the community as gangs continue to wreak havoc in the city. He said there’s a vacuum effect where new gang members replace ones who’ve been arrested or killed.
“It’s always been one down, one up,” Jordan said. “There’s always somebody to take their place. It comes back to the community. When one pops back up, we have to turn them in, to get them off the street.”
He said there are many causes for gang activity.
“I think it’s a combination or breakdown of the home, not having fathers in the home, mothers working, not having enough to do to keep them busy,” Jordan pointed out. “I talked to one [gang member] a while back and he knows the consequences of it but he said it’s worth it, because they get a lot of money really quick.”
News4JAX reached out to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office for comment. A spokesman said it’s still an open and active investigation, so JSO won’t be commenting, but he said detectives are hard at work.
Monday, News4JAX featured a local pastor who goes door to door checking on troubled teens, offering them jobs and resources if they get out of the gang life. He said he’s making progress, showing them a life outside of crime.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The mother of an Uber driver shot and killed in what police are calling a gang-related double shooting in Moncrief says she just learned of the two recent arrests in the case.

"I'm just really upset," Bryant Grund's mother Heidi Doyle said.

Doyle says her son was in the wrong place at the wrong time. She says she is devastated after reading the reports and learning there was a $20,000 dollar payout to kill the passenger her son was driving. "It is just so frivolous."

31-year-old Bryant Grund, who was driving for Uber, and his passenger 19-year-old Antonio Tillie were shot to death in a car near Kylan Drive on October 6.

On the day of the shooting, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office was dispatched to 7440 Kylan Drive West for reported gunshots. When officers arrived, they located a Mini Cooper Clubvan that had crashed into a home.

Grund was found in the driver's seat and Tillie was in the backseat. Both were suffering from multiple gunshot wounds and were pronounced dead on the scene.

First Coast News learned Tillie was the target. The reports confirmed the shooting was gang-related.

"Bryant had no business being put in harm's way by picking up a passenger and delivering him to a destination that was going to bring him harm," Doyle said.

22-year-old Ju'Quan Mills is charged with two counts of second-degree murder and 23-year-old Diamond Harris is charged with accessory after the fact.

According to the report, Mills told detectives there was a $20,000 payment offered to whoever killed the target. Police say Harris used social media, voice calls, and text messages to communicate and "presumably lure the victim to her location." Through interviews investigators discovered the victim was going to the area to meet a woman and "they were possibly going to meet up for a date," the report states. Content on Harris’ phone shows Mills' was helping her with what to say to the victim.

"They are seeing things as murder as a slap on the hand as a way of life. The most atrocious thing that could happen to you is to take a life but they are labeling it as part of being a lifestyle. It's not okay," Doyle said.

Doyle says she grieves for Tillie’s family. "They also lost someone very valuable whether they were in a good state of mind or not because obviously he was in a bit of trouble, but I know that any loss is something that can be mourned."



Doyle says she is mourning the loss of her oldest son and struggles to understand why his life was taken.

"He still walks with us every moment of everyday but it's just not the same," Doyle said.

Police reports say a third suspect is known to law enforcement but has not been arrested. If you have any information about this case, call Crime Stoppers at 866-845-TIPS.

Diamond Harris Faces Two Charges of Second Degree Murder in Fatal Shooting of Uber Driver and Passenger​


November 16, 2023 by Egbe Ogu



Accident – Death – Obituary News : Diamond Harris, a 23-year-old woman from Jacksonville, Florida, is now facing two charges of second-degree murder in connection with the deaths of an Uber driver and his passenger. The police have revealed that the passenger, identified as Antonio Tillie Jr., had a $20,000 bounty on his head as part of a gang-related hitman scheme. Harris is being charged alongside Ju’Quan Mills, and both are accused of killing Tillie and the driver, Bryant Grund.

The tragic incident occurred on October 19 when two shooters fired into the car that Grund was driving for Uber, resulting in the deaths of both men. While Tillie was the intended target, Grund was caught in the crossfire. The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office had previously arrested Mills on the day of the shooting but had not disclosed the identity of the second suspect. However, they have now revealed that Harris was allegedly involved in luring Tillie to the location where he was killed and discharged a firearm, causing the deaths of both victims.
The reason behind the upgraded charges against Harris has not been disclosed by prosecutors. However, a document from the State Attorney’s Office states that Harris “did actually possess and discharge a firearm,” leading to death or great bodily harm. The exact details surrounding the motive for the murders and the gang-related hitman scheme have not been revealed.
According to Mills’ arrest report, he confessed to police that Tillie had a $20,000 bounty on his head, and he received $10,000 for carrying out the hit along with another shooter. The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office was alerted to the shooting when gunshots were reported at a residence on Kylan Drive West. Upon arrival, they discovered a Mini Cooper Clubvan crashed into a home, with Grund found in the driver’s seat and Tillie in the backseat, both suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Sadly, they were pronounced dead at the scene.

During the investigation, it was revealed that Tillie had been heading to the area to meet a woman, possibly for a date. The report states that there was a target for the homicide, and Tillie was shot due to ongoing gang conflicts. Investigators also found evidence on Tillie’s cell phone, linking him to Diamond Harris through Instagram messages and calls.
In her interview with detectives, Harris admitted to communicating with Tillie through Instagram, voice calls, and text messages but denied providing him with the location where he was ultimately killed. However, evidence from Tillie’s phone contradicted Harris’ statement, revealing their continued contact until his death. Detectives found text threads on Harris’ phone between her and Mills, discussing how to keep Tillie interested and lure him to her location.
Further examination of Mills’ phone revealed that he was present at the scene during the time of the murders. Initially, he denied any involvement and claimed to be at a 24-hour laundry mat with a friend. However, he eventually consented to detectives viewing his phone and admitted to using his baby mama’s Instagram account to message and speak to Tillie. Mills confessed to shooting both victims alongside another suspect.
As of now, Harris and Mills are not in jail but are under house arrest. They are represented by public defenders, and Harris’ arraignment is scheduled for November 22. The bonds set for the two defendants are $250,003 for Harris and $750,000 for Mills.
The tragic case has shocked the community and highlights the dangers faced by Uber drivers and passengers. The investigation into the gang-related hitman scheme and the motive behind Tillie’s targeted killing is ongoing, and further details are expected to emerge in due course..
