MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Miami police said a 17-year-old was arrested and charged for his role in a mass shooting at a business called The Spot.

Fifteen people, between the ages of 11 and 25, were shot September 28, police said.

“He took out a gun and shot that juvenile who’s in critical condition at Jackson Memorial Hospital, and then he also shot at the crowd as he ran away, hitting another 14 people,” said Miami Police Chief Manuel Orosa.

Police believe 17-year-old Will Campbell was the main gunman at the restaurant, but other accomplices are still being sought after.

“He appears to be a good, clean-cut kid that went afoul,” said Chief Orosa. The 17-year-old had bounced around from high school to high school after getting in trouble at several campuses.

Campbell has been charged with attempted murder and 14 counts of aggravated battery.

Police said witnesses identified Campbell. He is charged as a juvenile, but those charges could be upgraded.

Police were executing search warrants across South Florida Monday night to gather additional evidence in the case.

So far, police have not recovered the weapons used in the shooting.

There were two handguns used in the shooting spree according to police sources.

A source familiar with the investigation tells CBS4 News that Campbell admitted to police to being at The Spot that night but he denied involvement in the shooting.

Police explained the teenager and 15-year-old who was the intended target and is in critical condition, were in a fight that started at Norland High School and then continued later at The Spot.

“This all stemmed from a fight at Norland High School, where one of his friends got involved in a fight,” said Chief Orosa. “And when his friends and him arrived at The Spot, they found the other person involved in a fight.”

In addition to the shooting, authorities said the business located at NW 7th Avenue and 64th Street was hit with several violations by nearly every task force involved with the case.

Officials said the business was not licensed as a club.

Some of the violations were minor, others were very serious.

Violations cited were for electrical issues, bottles of liquor found behind the bar, distributing alcohol with only a beer and wine license, for not having permits for a jukebox and a pool table, and for buying beer at Presidente Supermarket, which isn’t a legal distributor. The citations came with a recommendation to remove The Spot’s certificate of use.

The manager of the business, 31-year-old Tiffany Johnson, was arrested by Alcohol Beverages and Tobacco.

The 13-year-old daughter of Johnson was among the injured in the mass shooting.
