HIALEAH, FLA. (WSVN) - A 17-year-old is now being charged as an adult in connection with a shooting that erupted during a planned fight at a Hialeah apartment complex in September, police said.
Michael Isaac Delgado, appeared in bond court Wednesday, more than a month after he and another teenager were arrested following the shooting at the Aquabella community.
According to police, the shooting occurred Sept. 1 at approximately 2:36 p.m. when several individuals gathered at the complex to settle an ongoing dispute through a physical fight.
During the confrontation, police said Delgado pulled out a handgun and fired multiple shots.
One victim told investigators Delgado chased him while threatening to kill him and fired shots in his direction.
Another victim said Delgado pointed a gun at his face and fired, forcing him to drop to the ground.
Police said a bullet also struck the driver’s side of a Chevrolet Tahoe as several victims attempted to flee.
No injuries were reported.
Delgado and co-defendant Luis Padilla Delatorre were arrested Sept. 2 and initially taken to the Juvenile Assessment Center.
During Wednesday’s hearing, a judge ordered Delgado held without bond on an attempted second-degree murder charge.
The judge also set a $7,500 bond for discharging a firearm into an occupied vehicle and $500 each for unlawful possession of a firearm by a minor and unlawful discharge of a firearm.
