Around 5:30 p.m. on Jan. 4, Baker slowly drove a gray Mercedes SUV past his father’s girlfriend's home in the 2500 block of Northwest Fifth Street in Pompano Beach and opened fire on the couple in the driveway, deputies said. 

No one was wounded in the attack, but surveillance video showed bullets hitting the home’s exterior walls.

Deputies said Baker and his father had an argument over money before the shooting.

Baker is a convicted felon who was on probation for grand theft among other charges at the time of the shooting.

He is currently being held on $50,000 bond at Broward County’s Main Jail in Fort Lauderdale.
