The Florida Department of Law Enforcement arrested four suspects connected to the shooting of FSU linebacker Ethan Pritchard.
The investigation began when Gadsden County Sheriff’s Office contacted FDLE to investigate a shooting in Havana. Florida State University Linebacker Ethan Pritchard was driving in a neighborhood with two family members, one of which was a child, when the car was shot multiple times. Pritchard remains in critical condition.
On September 10th, FDLE Tallahassee agents, FDLE Special Operations Team, the Leon County Sheriff’s Office and the Havana Police Department conducted search warrants in Havana and Woodville, and three suspects were arrested in connection to the shooting. One juvenile suspect surrendered to the Gadsden County Sheriff’s Office hours later.
The FSU linebacker shooting suspects arrested are:
- 18-year-old Caron Miller, of Havana, Florida
- 23-year-old Germany Atkins, of Havana, Florida
- 22-year-old Jayden Bodison, of Woodville, Florida
- 16-year-old Anthony Glenn, of Havana, Florida
Miller, Bodison, and Glenn were each charged with three counts of attempted murder, and one count of shooting into an occupied vehicle. Atkins was arrested on a violation of probation charge. Upon first appearance, Miller, Atkins, and Bodison were ordered held on no bond, with Glenn was remanded to Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) custody on a no-release hold.
“This is the epitome of classic law enforcement collaboration, helping to heal a community harmed by gun violence,” said FDLE Commissioner Mark Glass. “I commend our agents and fellow law enforcement members for making sure these criminal see the consequences of their actions.”
The State Attorney’s Office of the Second Judicial Circuit is prosecuting the case.
The investigation remains active according to law enforcement.
