The following is a news release from the Flagler County Sheriff's Office:
Flagler County Sheriff’s Office deputies arrested a 19-year-old Bunnell man on Monday, March 21 and charged him with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and battery.
Steve Boursiquot, 19, of 142 Espanola Road, is accused of shooting at 33-year-old Napoleon Lorick, of 72 Espanola Road, after a confrontation over a $2,832 tax refund that is owed to Boursiquot’s girlfriend.
Just before 8 p.m. March 21, deputies were called to Espanola Road and County Road 205 where several female witnesses said several people battered Lorick and a shot was fired at him.
Lorick told deputies he was punched by both Boursiquot and another man. As Lorick got up and started to run, he looked back and saw Boursiquot reach down by his shoe and remove a revolver.
Then, Lorick told deputies, he heard at least one gunshot and a whizzing sound fly by him.
Deputies said Lorick had visible injuries to his lower back, a swollen ankle and complained of an injured hand as a result of the physical confrontation.
Boursiquot was arrested and taken to the Flagler County jail where he was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and battery. He remains in jail on bail of $6,000.
Lorick was arrested on an unrelated warrant from Volusia County for possession of marijuana.
