Brothers Face Felony Charges for Attack on Miami Mechanic Monday, officials say

By Leesfield & Partners

Two brothers face felony charges after police accused them of attacking a worker and using his own gun against him in Miami mechanic shop brawl Monday afternoon.

Pedro Luis Rodriguez, 40, was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and Angel Rodriguez-Candano, 32, was charged with aggravated assault with a firearm. Aggravated battery with a deadly weapon is a second-degree felony in Florida that, if convicted, can carry up to 15 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Penalties for aggravated assault with a firearm include up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $5,000, if convicted.

The alleged incident stemmed from a dispute that broke out Monday afternoon at Tire Liquidators, a shop located at 2090 Southwest 67th Avenue. Police told local reporters that the two brothers argued with the unnamed mechanic over past repairs made to Rodriguez’s vehicle. The two brothers allegedly followed the mechanic into the shop’s office where, police said, Rodriguez began punching him several times. At one point in the altercation, the mechanic pulled out a gun that Rodriguez-Candano lunged for, according to the report. The brawl between the three men continued until the mechanic fired the weapon three times.
