ST. PETERSBURG - Two men were killed and another wounded in a shooting at an audio business in the Lealman area early Saturday, Pinellas County sheriff's deputies said.

Kyle Ellis, 24, and Cabretti Wheeler, 21, both of St. Petersburg, died at the scene. A third male victim was shot and taken to a local hospital for treatment. His identity was not released because the shooter remained at large.
Deputies were looking for a heavyset black man and others suspected in the shooting, the sheriff's office said.
Deputies were called to Dat's Right Audio, 8191 46th Ave. N., shortly before 2 a.m. after someone reported gunshots.

They found the three victims inside the car stereo and recording studio business, which is also the home of one of the victims.

The shooters may have been in a gold-colored car described as possibly a Chevrolet Corsica, Buick Skylark or Buick Century, deputies said.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the sheriff's office at (727) 582-6200 or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-873-TIPS.
