Teen arrested after firing gun at victims following Archer Road argument

Alachua County Sheriff’s deputies arrested a 17-year-old Saturday night after he allegedly opened fire on others following a dispute that began at a gas station on Southwest Archer Road. The victims left the Chevron station but were followed by the suspects, and the teenager discharged a firearm from a vehicle as they turned into a residential neighborhood near 129th Street — no one was hit. The juvenile was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and discharging a firearm from a vehicle within 1,000 feet of another person, and a second occupant of the vehicle faces pending charges.
