A married couple were at their home at 65 Bronson Lane in Palm Coast the night of Aug. 31 when someone shot into the house and then fled in a vehicle.
No one was injured.
The man, 43-year-old Edwin Cox, told deputies he was sitting on his couch when he heard loud gunshots and the sound of glass breaking at about 11:23 p.m. His wife was asleep in a bedroom.
Cox told deputies that the shooter fled in a vehicle, but deputies who searched for it didn’t find it, according to a Flagler County Sheriff’s Office case report.
A crime scene investigation team was called out, and detectives found bullet holes in the front of the house and in the garage door. Neighbors told deputies that they didn’t see or hear anything, according to the case report. The case report is heavily redacted.
“Investigators believe this is an isolated incident. They are continuing to investigate,” a Sheriff’s Office news release stated.
The Sheriff’s Office has asked anyone with information about the shooting to call the Sheriff’s Office at 386-313-4911, or, to remain anonymous, to call Crime Stoppers of Northeast Florida at 1-888-277-8477. Crime Stoppers tipsters may be eligible for a reward of up to $1,000.
