Investigators said the assailant shot the man, later identified as 30-year-old Juan C. Gil of Miami. at about 8:30 p.m. at a Polo Grounds Shopping Plaza parking lot at Military Trail and Summit Boulevard.
Police said that Gil was shot several times in the stomach and was rushed to an area hospital where he was last listed in serious condition, according to the sheriff’s office.
A nearby Florida Highway Patrol trooper who was working private duty for the shopping plaza arrested the suspected assailant without incident with charges pending.
Police have identified the suspect as security guard Nelson Monzon, 39, who they say was in uniform and but was not working as security there, Sheriff’s officials report.
Monzon, a West Palm Beach resident, confronted Gil and argued and then shot him in the stomach numerous times, according to updated information released this morning.
