It comes after the arrest of Wayne Grant Jr., who was arrested in February and faced charges of aggravated battery with a firearm, and the arrest earlier this week of Shamika Stubbs-Peterson, who faced burglary charges connected to the case.
The fatal shooting happened around 11 p.m. on Feb. 28 in the area of Ironwedge Drive and South Lake Orlando Parkway. The department said there were seven victims in the shooting, including 21-year-old James Jerry Dawn William III, who was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police said the incident began hours earlier, around 3 p.m., when officers were called to the area for an alleged assault with weapons after a disagreement over a vehicle not being returned by a mutually agreed-upon date.
“An individual involved in the incident desired prosecution for the alleged assault, however, the suspect was not located,” police said in a statement. “Officers did issue a trespass warning for one of the individuals involved in the alleged disagreement.”
An affidavit for an arrest warrant said Grant Jr. was the person was trespassed after he was accused of threatening a witness at their home while “looking for a vehicle.”
No other information has been released on Robinson’s arrest, including his involvement in the incident.
“We are still in the process of sorting out the roles of those injured and identifying the suspects,” police said days after the shooting. “We do know there was an exchange of gunfire between two groups and OPD has developed and are working leads in this case. We do believe this is an isolated and targeted incident.”
