Cross-Dresser Murdered in Florida

DAYTONA BEACH, FL -- Oscar Mosqueda, 34, was shot after he allegedly made a physical advance on another man in a Daytona, Florida, restaurant. Mosqueda was wearing a miniskirt and high heels when he was killed, authorities said

Cesar Israel Villazano, 18, of DeLand, Florida, shot Mosqueda in the head following an argument at the restaurant. Villazano fled the crime scene but was apprehended by police later the same day and charged with second-degree murder. A man with Villazano, Luis Acosta, 21, also of DeLand, was charged with possession of cocaine. Both were taken to the Volusia County Branch Jail, where Villazano is being held without bail.

According to Villazano, Mosqueda made a physical advance on him. Villazano said he was embarrassed by the advance because he isn't gay. Shortly afterward, the two men went outside. Villazano got into Acosta's car, and then started arguing with Mosqueda and another man, Acosta told police.

Then Villazano fired a handgun twice into the air and once at Mosqueda, Acosta told police. After the shot was fired, a bartender from the Holly Hill Eagles club next door called 911.

Mosqueda was transported to Halifax Medical Center, where he died about noon Sunday, Daytona Beach police said.
