OKALOOSA COUNTY, Fla. (WDNews) — A man is in custody after allegedly firing two shots into an occupied FedEx delivery van Thursday in Cinco Bayou, nearly hitting the driver.
Brian Quinones, 27, is facing serious charges, including two counts of attempted second-degree homicide, two counts of firing a deadly missile into a vehicle, and possession of marijuana. The incident occurred on Annison Court, where one bullet struck the passenger-side window frame, while another penetrated the driver’s side windshield. The driver, fortunately, ducked in time to avoid being hit.
Reports from the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office said, two people were in the FedEx van when the shooting took place. They reported that a man with dreadlocks, driving a white truck with Aqua Pool logos, pulled in front of their van, stopped, and fired two shots before fleeing the scene.
Deputies quickly located Quinones and conducted a felony traffic stop. A loaded 9mm handgun, additional ammunition, and marijuana were found inside the truck. The motive for the shooting remains under investigation.
