According to the arrest affidavit, Orange County deputies said they were flagged down by a man who told them that a black female in a red SUV had just shot at him. The man said he was driving on North Pine Hills Road, near the intersection of Belco Drive, when he saw a red SUV just sitting in the middle of the road.
The man said the female was shooting at people driving past her, and one of the rounds struck his rear passenger quarter panel.
More victims came forward as time went on. Another victim stated that Baxter pulled up next to her car, screaming profanities, and then she heard two thumps on her vehicle before driving away. The woman said she discovered two bullet holes in the front of her car the next day. She returned to the crime scene and found another witness who saw Baxter shooting at vehicles.
An arrest has been made in the shooting death of 27-year-old Nekaybaw Collier.

Detectives said the bullet belonging to Baxter’s revolver was examined by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Lab and matched those found in Collier’s body during an autopsy.
When deputies went to her residence, they found several firearms, one of which was a Taurus .38 revolver. According to FDLE, that weapon was used to kill Collier.
During an interview, Baxter said she didn’t remember the day the shootings occurred but remembered “multiple vehicles were following her,” according to an arrest affidavit. She told detectives she pulled her gun out in the same area the shooting happened and shot in the air because a woman was following her.
Baxter is being held in the Orange County Jail charged with second-degree murder, aggravated assault with a firearm, and two counts of shooting into a vehicle. She is being held without bond. The sheriff’s office also obtained a temporary risk protection order to ensure Baxter has no further access to guns.
