A man wanted in connection with a Miami shooting was arrested at rapper Trippie Redd’s South Florida mansion during a massive police raid Tuesday, authorities told TMZ.
The Miami Police Department said officers were searching for 25-year-old Braveone Jones, who is wanted in connection with a September 15 shooting outside Dukunoo Jamaican Kitchen in Miami.
According to police, Jones was found at Trippie Redd’s Southwest Ranches property around 6 p.m. and taken into custody. He is now facing two counts of attempted murder.
The Davie Police Department confirmed its officers were at the property assisting with the search warrant, while the Miami Police Department is leading the investigation.
Jones, who also goes by the name BalloutDaDon, is listed in the online booking record in connection with a Miami-Dade County case. The record lists two firearm-related attempted second-degree murder charges, with bond set at $15,000 for each count.
Jones has also appeared on livestreams with internet personalities, including N3on.
The arrest adds a major development to Tuesday’s raid at Trippie Redd’s $8 million Florida mansion, where multiple law-enforcement agencies converged to execute a search warrant.
Davie Police, Fort Lauderdale Police, Sunrise Police, the Broward Sheriff’s Office, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and Plantation Police SWAT were among the agencies involved, according to the report.
At the time officers arrived, authorities had not publicly identified who they were looking for or explained what had prompted the search.
The latest information indicates Jones was the person authorities were seeking. Police have not publicly detailed his alleged role in the September 15 shooting beyond identifying him as wanted in connection with the case.
