Twin Brothers Facing Charges After Paintball Attacks in Naranja Area

Two twin brothers, Ernest Germain Flowers and Evan Germain Flowers, are facing felony charges after sh00ting at least two people with paintball rounds in the Miami-Dade County's unincorporated Naranja area. The brothers, 22, were each accused of sh00ting at least one person with paintball pellets, resulting in injuries. They were out on bond for attempted murder in connection with a 2022 sh00ting in a Dadeland Mall parking garage when they were 18. The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office responded to Naranja Lakes Park on August 18, finding a woman with multiple injuries requiring treatment. Both brothers are now in custody on charges of felony battery, misdemeanor battery, and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. They are suspected in multiple other similar incidents. The brothers were held in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center after being given bonds of $12,001. All individuals accused of a crime are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
