An Atmore man was taken into custody Feb. 18 and charged with three counts of attempted murder and discharging a firearm into an occupied vehicle, according to officials.

Atmore Police Department Public Information Officer Sgt. Darrell McMann said in a release that Brayvuan York, 21, was taken into custody on arrest warrants for three counts of attempted murder and discharging a firearm into an occupied vehicle.

McMann said on Nov. 29, 2024, at approximately 3:45 p.m., APD officers responded to the area of Brown Street and Carver Avenue in reference to several shots fired into a vehicle.

“The suspects fled the area on foot after the shooting,” McMann said. “One of the victims was able to identify one of the suspects who is a 15-year-old juvenile. The juvenile was also a suspect in a number of other incidents, and has been taken into custody.”

McMann said through the course of the investigation, investigators were able to identify the second suspect as York.

York was transported to the Escambia County Detention Center in Brewton.
