Nesta Walker, 28, was arrested Feb. 22 after police said they chased him after 45-year-old Raynold Orelus was shot and killed in a parking lot on Baymeadows Road to northwest Jacksonville.
Police said Orelus was walking the restaurant manager to her SUV so she could go to the bank and make a deposit when Walker approached them with a gun. When Orelus tried to fight off the robber, he was shot once in the chest.
State Attorney Angela Corey released a statement after the shooing,calling it "a very disturbing crime committed at a public restaurant during lunch hour."
After Walker appeared at Thursday's arraignment, he was scheduled to return next month and his trial could begin as early as July.
