We later learned one of the victims was Craivon Aiken, the son of Craig Aiken.
Craig Aiken is also the father of Kamiyah Mobley, who was found safe in South Carolina in early 2017 when she was 18-years-old, after being kidnapped from a Jacksonville hospital as a newborn in 1998.

According to the teen’s arrest report, he stole a car after the shooting that could be tracked by GPS.
Officers used that tracking system to find the car on Broward Road.
The suspect ran and was eventually taken into custody in a wooded area with the help of a police K9.

As of right now, the teenager is charged with possession of a weapon, auto theft, marijuana possession and resisting arrest.
He is not charged with the homicides. For that reason and because of the suspect’s age, we are not identifying the teen.
We’ll continue to monitor this case and bring you updates as soon as they become available.
