Three suspects have been arrested and a fourth remains at large following a gang-related home invasion attempt in Deltona, Florida, where 25 bullets struck a family residence, with four rounds penetrating an 11-year-old child’s bedroom wall while the child slept inside.

Attack Details and Investigation

The violent incident occurred around 4 a.m. on November 19, 2025, at a residence on Wainwright Street. Four occupants awoke to the sound of gunfire and immediately checked their surveillance cameras, discovering four masked and hooded individuals attempting to force entry into their home. Investigators documented extensive damage, including six rounds that penetrated the front window. Four of those bullets continued through an interior wall into the bedroom where the 11-year-old was sleeping, according to the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office.

Detectives identified three suspects through the investigation: James Cropper, 19, Jamar Battle, 19, and Edrice Brantley, 15, all from Orlando. The breakthrough came when authorities used license plate reader technology to track a stolen getaway vehicle to Orlando, where they recovered it and processed fingerprint evidence linking the suspects to the crime.

Fourth Suspect Wanted

Investigators subsequently identified a fourth suspect, Miguel Alberto Nunez Albrincole, 33, of Kissimmee. An arrest warrant was issued earlier this month charging him with shooting into an occupied home, attempted armed burglary of an occupied home, and armed burglary of a vehicle. Authorities report Nunez Albrincole originally came from the Dominican Republic, and his last known address is the 19 South Apartments in Kissimmee. His current whereabouts remain unknown.

Gang Activity From Orlando

The Sheriff’s Office confirmed the crime was gang-related and originated in the Orlando area before the suspects traveled to Deltona. The terrifying incident has forced the targeted family to relocate from their home. The case highlights growing concerns about gang violence extending from urban centers into residential communities where families expect safety and security. The involvement of a 15-year-old suspect raises additional questions about youth recruitment into criminal organizations.

What This Means

This incident demonstrates the real danger innocent families face when criminal elements bring violence into quiet neighborhoods. The fact that bullets penetrated a child’s bedroom while occupied underscores how easily this situation could have ended in tragedy. Authorities are urging anyone with information about Nunez Albrincole’s location to contact the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office immediately. The successful use of license plate reader technology and surveillance footage proved critical in identifying suspects and protecting the community from further violence.
