A Miami man is in a county jail on two counts of first-degree murder after police say he fatally shot his girlfriend\u2019s two brothers, who detectives say were trying to protect her.<\/p>\n
Police say Antwan Carter was in the apartment that he shares with the woman on the 5300 block of Northwest 17th Avenue around noon Saturday when he opened fire with his Glock 9 mm handgun, shooting 23-year-old Jaheim Pierre and 28-year-old Gianni Pierre.<\/p>\n
Gianni Pierre was sitting on a couch when he was hit, and Jaheim Pierre ran toward his sister and collapsed on top of her when bullets struck him, according to Carter\u2019s arrest report. When police arrived, the woman, whom the Miami Herald is not naming because she is a possible victim of domestic violence, was covered in blood, according to the report.<\/p>\n
Jaheim Pierre was dead when paramedics arrived, according to the report. Gianni PIerre was taken to Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he died minutes after arriving, the report states.<\/p>\n
Detectives say the woman and Carter had been in a relationship for about four years, and her brothers came to her apartment on Saturday \u201cto look after her\u201d because of a \u201chistory of previous domestic violence\u201d between the couple, the report states.<\/p>\n
Jaheim Pierre and his sister began arguing, and Carter interrupted them, the woman told police. Jaheim Pierre punched Carter, and a fight started involving all three men, the woman told police, according to the report.<\/p>\n
Detectives watched building security-camera footage that showed Carter leave the apartment, walk to a black, four-door sedan, place \u201can unknown object\u201d in his front pocket and walk back to the unit, according to the report.<\/p>\n
He then banged on the door demanding someone let him in, saying, \u201cI bet one of you won\u2019t open up,\u201d detectives wrote in the report.<\/p>\n
When one of the brothers eventually opened the door, Carter ran inside, pulling the trigger, the footage showed, according to the report. Detectives wrote in the affidavit that they heard several gunshots, followed by a woman screaming. A woman was then seen running out of the apartment with her bare feet and clothes covered in blood, the report states.<\/p>\n
The woman told police that after the shooting, Carter said to her, \u201cSee what you made me do,\u201d the report states.<\/p>\n
Carter, who is being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center awaiting a judge to set bond, told detectives that he walked out of the apartment \u201cto get a breath of fresh air,\u201d according to the report. He told cops he returned to get his wallet and keys, and when he went inside, the brothers \u201csquared up with both fists in the air ready to fight again,\u201d the report states.<\/p>\n
