A Flagler Beach man was arrested after threatening to shoot someone parked on city property near the suspects home.

The victim told Flagler Beach police officers that he had been sitting in the passenger seat of his girlfriend’s truck on May 21 while she completed work at a neighboring property in the 2500 block of Lakeshore Drive in Flagler Beach, according to the suspect’s arrest report.

The suspect came out of his home and yelled at the victim to get off his lawn, then threatened to shoot him— pointing his gun at the victim — when the victim opened the truck door, the victim told police. The victim drove away from the scene, calling 911.

The suspect told deputies that the victim got out of the truck and came at him, but video evidence shows that the victim never left the vehicle, which was legally parked on city property.

A video the victim recorded shows the suspect pointing his gun at the victim and saying, “I will shoot you.”

The suspect was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He was arrested, but later released on $50,000 bond.
