Filming took place on Saturday around 7:30 p.m. in front of the Hooters restaurant on Shoreline Drive and Aquarium Way. According to the authorities, two men and a 13-year-old boy were injured.

Police said the shots were fired from a vehicle and a bullet went through the restaurant’s front door and one of the victims ran into the restaurant to seek help.

“I understand it was a very chaotic scene,” said Moncton Police Chief Robert Luna after the shooting. “Thank goodness we had several officers on site and our officers are amazing.”

Shortly after the shooting, officers stopped a vehicle believed to have been involved in the shooting and arrested Rodriguez-Zamora and two minors – one 15-year-old and one 17-year-old. As the police announced, a firearm was recovered from the vehicle.

It was initially unclear whether charges were brought against the young people.

Rodriguez-Zamora is due to be indicted on July 13.
