A man accused of gunning down his neighbor in a Nashville apartment breezeway more than a year ago is finally in custody, arrested hundreds of miles away in Florida. Markese Greer, 32, was booked in Palm Beach County on Sept. 14, and he is now awaiting extradition back to Tennessee to face charges in the July 2025 murder of 26-year-old Dante Jenoure.
Greer is under indictment for Jenoure's killing, according to News Channel 5 Nashville, which reports he was arrested in Palm Beach County and is now awaiting extradition back to Tennessee. A booking listing from palmbeachfl.mugshots.zone confirms Greer Markese Lamar was arrested in Palm Beach County, Florida, dated Sept. 14.
A Deadly Confrontation at Preakness Apartments
Jenoure lived at the Preakness Apartments on Bell Road, where he was shot multiple times in a breezeway, the station's report states. He was rushed to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where he later died.
Investigators said both Greer and Jenoure were armed during the confrontation, while police said the shooting reportedly stemmed from a dispute over money, per the same account. It remains unclear whether Jenoure fired his own weapon during the encounter, according to the report.
From Nashville to a Florida Airport Job
At some point after the shooting, Greer left Nashville and resurfaced in Florida, where he had been working as a contractor at Palm Beach International Airport, the article notes. His arrest more than a year after Jenoure's death suggests investigators had been tracking his movements even as he built a new life on the other side of the country.
Metro Nashville Police's Warrants Division coordinated with Florida authorities to secure Greer's arrest, according to the same account. Officials say Greer is expected to be returned to Nashville in the coming days to answer to the indictment.
The case adds another chapter to a violent stretch tied to Greer's name in Nashville. A Metro Nashville Police statement referenced a state arrest warrant charging Greer with unlawful gun possession by a convicted felon, noting he was on supervised federal release, though that document appears connected to a separate firearms case handled by Nashville.gov and is not detailed as part of the murder indictment.
What Comes Next
For now, the core facts of the Jenoure case remain as investigators described them: a fatal shooting rooted in a money dispute, two armed men, and a victim who did not survive his injuries. Extradition proceedings are underway, but no additional court dates, bond information, or plea details have been reported.
