It is being reported that around 8 p.m. in the evening on July 12, a man was speeding and driving recklessly through a neighborhood in Clearwater. The driver, 20-year-old Daniel Calvert, was spinning his wheels and abruptly stopping and starting again when 39-year-old Mohamed El-Shaeir, who was unloading his vehicle with his wife, requested that he desist.
Calvert then stopped his vehicle, began to yell racial slurs as he approached El-Shaeir, before hitting him in the face. After the first punch was thrown, El-Shaeir reached into his car and removed his firearm. After Calvert again hit El-Shaeir in the face, El-Shaeir reached for the gun and fired, shooting Calvert in the leg.
Calvert was taken to the hospital, but the injuries were non-fatal. He was later charged with battery. El-Shaeir was arrested for culpable negligence and carrying a concealed firearm, but was later released.
