He Said, She Said: Shots Fired, Results In No Charges

A delivery driver and passenger were involved in an incident earlier this month when a homeowner shot at them. No charges have been filed.

Waldes Thomas Jr., 19, and Diamond Darville, 18, were attempting to deliver groceries for Instacart. Mistakenly, they drove onto the 2-acre property of Antonio Caccavale, 43.

According to a police report from the Davie Police Department, the couple was “on the phone with the customer, trying to find the right address” when they arrived at the wrong location. Officials say that their desired destination had been across the street.

Caccavale, the homeowner, was interviewed afterward. He’d instructed his teenage son to ask the delivery people to leave. He says he then heard his son call for help, says ABC6.

According to the police report, Caccavale claimed that the driver was driving erratically and began running over logs, boulders, and a fence on his property. He approached the car, fearing for his safety and that of his son.

When the car allegedly ran over his foot, Caccavale pulled out his handgun. He shot several rounds toward the tires of the vehicle with a Smith and Wesson Shield, says NPR.

The delivery driver, Thomas, gave a different story. He said he tried to leave the area after being asked to by Caccavale’s son. “Caccavale approached them aggressively” and they heard three close gunshots.

The couple left the scene following the shooting. WRAL News claims that at first police were not informed of these events. It was only once an interview with the couple was released that police looked into the incident.

Davie police found no need to file charges because “each party appears justified in their actions based on the circumstances they perceived.”

As always, stay tuned for updates.
