Man Charged in Daytona Beach Main Street Shootout

A man has been charged in the early morning shooting near Froggy's Saloon on Main Street in Daytona Beach.

Steven Kyle Ott, 26, of Port Orange, was arrested Monday evening, according to WFTV. He faces a charge of attempted second-degree murder and is being held without bond.

Police say the shooting happened around 2 a.m. on October 12 in the 800 block of Main Street. WFTV reports at least 30 rounds were fired. Ott and the other armed person were both shot and taken to the hospital in critical condition. The other person has not been named.

Police have not said whether a bystander who also fired a gun will be charged. Police Chief Jakari Young said the shooting was not related to Biketoberfest. WFTV reports the arrest affidavit is largely blacked out because the investigation is still active.

No court date has been reported yet.

The charge is an allegation. Ott is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
