Grijota faces three counts of attempted murder.
Behrend Ludwig, 18, was arrested and charged with three counts of attempted murder one day after the shooting.
The sheriff’s office accused Ludwig of shooting the victim near Silver Bluff Boulevard and Plantation Oaks Boulevard following an “altercation.”
CCSO added that Ludwig and the victim knew each other.
The juvenile was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. No one else was injured.
The investigation is now closed and will be handed to the State Attorney’s Office.
“Crime of any sort will never be welcomed and never be tolerated in Clay County. The two suspects in this case had absolutely no regard for human life and their heinous, violent actions put innocent families and children in harm’s way,” Sheriff Michelle Cook said.
