COCOA, Fla. (WFLA) – About 50 rounds have been fired in a shooting that left a two-year-old hospitalized, the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office said.
Around 1:23pm on Tuesday, a woman and a man entered the cocoa meat, laying produce in a stroller with a two-year-old child, and a black Mercedes stood up and three suspects ran out of the car.
At about 1:26pm, Sheriff Wayne Ivy said a man and a woman left the shop and pushed a stroller, and three people from the car engaged them.
“As the shooting began, more than 50 rounds were fired from different directions. One of these rounds struck a baby two-year-old woman in the pelvic area,” Sheriff Wayne Ivy said.
The baby is taken to a nearby hospital where it is in stable condition.
“The shooting clearly appears to be beyond some of the kind of continuing feud they have,” Sheriff Ivy said.
The man who came out of the store is in custody, and the deputies are searching for the three of them who were in black Mercedes.
“Around 50 rounds were fired between the four subjects, with four subjects giving birth to a baby between them, not only did all four go back and forth to each other, putting the baby in danger, but others in the surrounding area.
At this point, the deputies don’t know who shot first.
Anyone with information about the shooting will be asked to call the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office or the criminal at 1-800-423-8477.
