Last week, Young’s attorney, Rick Escobar, told FOX 13 that Young’s 13-year-old brother was shot by Catuy.

According to court documents, a witness told law enforcement that Young’s brother threw water on an unnamed victim in the bathroom. That’s when the victim "confronted" Young’s brother.

The victim is not named in these documents and is only identified as "victim."

According to the witness, Young’s brother told the victim "he was going to get his brother" and "return to retaliate."

Surveillance video showed Young’s brother leaving the area of Armature Works. Shortly after, Young and his brother returned to the area near Stone’s Throw Restaurant. Young, who had a gun, "fired multiple rounds toward the victim from the bathroom altercation."

Tampa police outlined in court documents how "a still photo from the social media account was run through a facial recognition program," which is how Young was identified as "a potential suspect."

Using city of Tampa license plate reader cameras to look for black Toyota Avalons on the day of the shooting, police tracked down a black Toyota Avalon owned by a Tampa father, whose son is a "known associate" to Young.

On the day after the shooting, law enforcement went to Jefferson High School, which was the last school Young attended. A school resource officer identified Young after watching surveillance video from the area near the shooting.

Young’s attorney, Escobar, told FOX 13 on Tuesday that he’s reviewed the motion, and the facts of the case will be refuted by the defense.

Young has a court hearing set for Friday, but his attorneys have said they plan to continue that hearing, so their office has more time to investigate.

Meanwhile, Hillsborough State Attorney Suzy Lopez said her office will charge the other arrested suspect in this case, Catuy, as an adult.
