Port St Lucie, Fl- The Port St. Lucie Police have reported that they arrested Richard Filsaime, III of Palm Bay for shooting in the Tradition Parking Garage.
Here are the details from the Port St Lucie Police
On June 3rd, 2024, 17-year-old Richard Filsaime, III of Palm Bay was arrested by Martin County Sheriff’s Office deputies on an outstanding PSLPD take into custody order for Aggravated Battery with a Firearm and Aggravated Assault with a Firearm. The arrest stemmed from a shooting that occurred at the Tradition Parking Garage on SW Stephanie Way back in May 2024. The arrest occurred during a routine traffic stop at the Wawa located in the 3800 block of NW Federal Hwy 1 in Jensen Beach.
The investigation began on May 24th, 2024, at 10:02 PM when PSLPD responded to the Tradition Parking Garage for several calls regarding a possible shooting. Upon arrival, officers did not locate any victims, witnesses or evidence to support a shooting had occurred.
A few hours later, a 16-year-old male walked into Lawnwood Hospital with a gunshot wound to the foot. PSLPD Major Crimes Unit detectives responded to the hospital and discovered that the male was in fact a victim of the shooting that occurred in the parking garage. The gunshot wound was not life-threatening.
Through their investigation, detectives uncovered a short video of the shooting which shows a group of juveniles fighting on the top of the parking garage. Filsaime was a member of one group of juveniles involved and the victim was a member of the other group involved. The video depicts Filsaime jumping away from the crowd of juveniles fighting, extending his right arm with something in his right hand, and then a gunshot can be heard.
The firearm used in the shooting has not been recovered.
Filsaime, who was previously arrested by PSLPD in October 2022 when he was found in possession of a concealed firearm at Treasure Coast High School, is currently detained at the St. Lucie Regional Juvenile Detention Center.
