A 31-year-old man, Antwan Carter, has been arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree m¥rder after allegedly sh+oting d#ad his girlfriend’s two brothers inside her Miami apartment during a v+olent domestic dispute.
Police say Gianni Pierre, 28, and his younger brother Jaheim, 23, were k+lled on Saturday after they rushed to the apartment to protect their sister, who had reportedly been in a long-term relationship with Carter for about four years. Authorities said the brothers were concerned about a “history of domestic v+olence” and went over to check on her safety.
According to police reports, an argument broke out shortly after their arrival. Jaheim allegedly got into a heated exchange with his sister before striking Carter, leading to a physical f+ght involving all three men.
Investigators say Carter then left the apartment, went to his car, retrieved a fir£arm, and returned thr+atening the group. “I bet one of you won’t open up,” he allegedly shouted before opening f#re with a Glock 9mm handg¥n.
Gianni, who was sitting on a couch at the time, was shot and later died at Jackson Memorial Hospital. Jaheim was also shot and found bl££ding inside a closet, according to reports. Their sister was reportedly left covered in bl+od during the chaos.
Witnesses described hearing multiple gunshots in the apartment. A neighbour, Gina Kirk, said she was awakened by the sound of g¥no+re. “Five g¥nshots,” she told CBS News.
After the sh+oting, Carter reportedly told officers, “I am the one; I have the f+rearm,” and was taken into custody at the scene. Police said he also claimed the brothers were still preparing to f+ght when he returned with the w£apon.
Officers recovered multiple shell casings and b¥let fragments from the apartment. Carter has been charged with first-degree m¥rder, a capital offence that carries the possibility of the d+ath penalty in Florida.
He appeared in court on Monday and pleaded not guilty as investigations continue.
