15-Year-Old Will Be Charged as an Adult After 11 People Were Shot Near Florida A&M University Stadium

A 15-year-old faces 11 counts of attempted second-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a delinquent in connection with a mass shooting Saturday night that left 11 people wounded, Tallahassee police said.

Anthony Rivers III, who was arrested Sunday, will be charged as an adult, State Attorney Jack Campbell told CNN. During a detention hearing Monday, a judge ordered Rivers to remain in custody.

The investigation suggests a physical altercation took place among “individuals known to one another” before shots were fired, Tallahassee Police Chief Lawrence Revell said.

“At this stage of the investigation, none of the victims appear to have been the intended targets,” he said.
