Kizer was charged with shooting into an occupied building with a semi-automatic weapon.
One of the victims told JSO he was recently involved in a dispute over a game where he was “roasting” 18-year-old Logan Kurlin who was driving the car with Kizer inside before he was arrested.
Kizer and Kurlin spoke to JSO but their statements were redacted in the arrest report.
Kurlin, who was also arrested Wednesday, is also facing charges of shooting into an occupied building and carrying a concealed firearm.
A Jacksonville woman who spoke to News4JAX said the terrifying drive-by shooting left her home riddled with bullets that narrowly missed her family.
