Crimestopper Tip Nets Lehigh Suspects - Reward Increased

LABELLE, FL. -- As a result of several Crime Stoppers tips, the two suspects in Monday’s bold daytime home burglary in Lehigh have been identified as Martha Helton, DOB 3/5/84, of Labelle, and Vincent Montilongo, DOB 2/14/74 of Lehigh Acres.

Martha Helton has turned herself in to Lee County detectives and Montilongo has been arrested at his Lehigh Acres home.

In the wake of the Moore Haven homicide of a 31 year old US Army veteran, Southwest Florida Crime Stoppers, the Glades County Sheriff’s Office and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement are announcing an increased reward in hopes of finding the killer of Mario Hughes.

Hughes was murdered at his residence on East Park Avenue SE in Moore Haven shortly after 8 p.m. on Friday, January 31st. Now, more than two months after his life was taken, investigators are hoping an increased reward of $7,000 will encourage someone to step forward and provide information.
