Johnny Bermea Biography

Who is Johnny Bermea ?

A 25-year-old woman was killed when a pair of teenagers viciously fired more than 100 bullets at the AirBnb where she was staying near Fort Worth, Texas, in a vicious drive-by shooting gone wrong.

Novita Brazil was killed instantly when the two underage gunmen opened fire, but police said the suspects likely “hit the wrong house” and that she was innocent and not involved in what caused the shooting.

Bexar County police chased the shooters, just 14 and 15 years old, for more than ten miles in a car chase before they were finally apprehended. Both have been charged with first degree murder.

Charged and Arrested

Three others believed to be involved in the shooting were also arrested: two also aged 15 and 14, and 17-year-old Johnny Bermea. They were charged with deadly conduct with a firearm.

Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar said the children who carried out the shooting seemed completely ruthless after being taken into custody.

A 41-year-old woman who was staying in the house with Brazil was injured in the leg and was treated in stable condition.

Police said Brazil had been up late working on her laptop when she was hit by the barrage of bullets shortly after midnight.

“She had just gotten up, burning the midnight oil, doing some work on her computer, and now she is dead,” Salazar said, describing Brazil as “completely innocent.”

“They found the wrong house and it looks like a 25-year-old woman lost her life,” she added.

Investigation

Photos from the scene showed the street littered with yellow evidence tags where dozens of shell casings were found during the investigation.

“The problem with that is obviously 14- or 15-year-olds are shooting from a vehicle in the dead of night,” Salazar said.

“I don’t think they’re showing remorse at all,” she added.

He said the car the boys were driving was probably stolen. The motive for the planned shooting remains unclear.
