Lakeland news, Florida news.

Authorities in Florida are desperately looking for two brothers involved in the heinous murder of a man who went missing earlier this month.

Danne Frazier, 21, did not return home from his work at a local warehouse. He was reported missing by his family on Nov. 4, only to be found six days later, slaughtered and stuffed inside an orange grove in Lake Wales.

“He was killed very violently,” Polk County Sheriff officer Carrie Horstman said.

“Whoever killed him, we need to find that person and get them behind bars before they hurt anybody else.”

Police said that on the night of November 6, while Frazier was still missing, they came upon the two brothers traveling in his vehicle in Flagler County.

The driver, Jojo Lobato, 19, fled the scene but his 18-year-old brother Angel Lobato was arrested and interviewed.

Angel said that the car was rented and since officers “really had nothing on the individual that we said was the passenger in the vehicle, we could not hold them.”

After his release, Angel and Jojo Lobato vanished and never showed up again.

Detectives said that someone is hiding them in Polk County.

“We’ve seen some things in this car that they were found with that we know are Connecticut to the crime,” Horstman said.

“We know they know something about this. We know that they’re hiding on purpose. We know that they’re violent, armed and dangerous.”
