However, neither Coleman nor Joshua are suspects in the actual shooting, and so police are still searching for the shooter, investigators explained.
Coleman faces charges of tampering with physical evidence, solicitation to tamper with physical evidence, and two counts of firearm possession by a felon. He is held without bond.
Meanwhile, Joshua faces one count of tampering with physical evidence. She is held on bond of $5,000.
Anyone with information on the shooting or the shooter’s whereabouts is urged to contact detectives at (352) 369-7000.
