27-year-old Daniel Nobile accused of shooting at golfers on Jupiter Abacoa golf course
JUPITER, FL – A man has been charged with four counts of attempted second-degree murder after allegedly firing multiple shots at golfers at the Abacoa Golf Club on Tuesday evening, according to an arrest report released by the Jupiter Police Department.
The suspect, identified as 27-year-old Daniel Nobile, is accused of opening fire on a group of four individuals who were playing on hole three of the golf course around 6:00 p.m.
Officers responded quickly to the scene following multiple reports of gunfire.
According to the probable cause affidavit, the golfers stated that the shots came from the backyard of a residence located across a lake from their position on the course.
After firing, the suspect was seen retreating into the house.
One of the victims initially believed the loud bangs were fireworks until he noticed a man—later identified as Nobile—walking along the back of the home holding what appeared to be a handgun aimed in their direction.
All four golfers, who said they had no prior contact or known history with Nobile, immediately fled the area in golf carts and contacted authorities.
None of the victims were injured.
As police investigated, they made contact with a family friend who had received a panicked phone call from Nobile’s sister, describing loud noises and expressing fear.
When the friend arrived at the residence and spoke with Nobile, he reportedly claimed that “everything was fine.”
Police later interviewed Nobile’s parents, who confirmed that a firearm was present in the home.
A black Glock 17 handgun was recovered from the garage, wrapped in cloth and hidden, according to the affidavit.
Nobile was taken into custody without incident and appeared before a judge on Wednesday.
The court ordered no bond pending the outcome of a mental health evaluation.
The next court hearing is scheduled for June 10.
Jupiter Police Chief provided a statement emphasizing the seriousness of the incident and praised the swift response of officers that ensured no one was physically harmed during the shooting.
The investigation remains active.
AUSTIN, Texas — A man was taken into custody Saturday afternoon following a shooting inside the Austin Central Library that left one person seriously injured and prompted a large emergency response and temporary shelter-in-place order in the downtown area.
According to the Austin Police Department (APD), officers responded shortly after 12:00 p.m. to reports of gunfire inside the Austin Central Library, located at 710 W. César Chávez Street.
Upon arrival, police and Austin-Travis County EMS units found one victim suffering from a gunshot wound.
The individual was transported to a local hospital in serious but stable condition.
Assistant Police Chief Lee Rogers stated during a press briefing that the shooter fled the scene before officers arrived.
After an extensive search, the suspect—identified as 55-year-old Harold Newton Keene—was located and arrested in South Austin at approximately 1:25 p.m.
The library was safely evacuated, and the shelter-in-place alert was lifted shortly after Keene’s apprehension.
Authorities emphasized that the shooting appeared to be an isolated incident involving only one suspect and one victim.
“This was not an active shooter situation,” Rogers confirmed.
Preliminary reports and public records reveal that Harold Newton Keene has a lengthy criminal history, including multiple arrests for assault, family violence, terroristic threats, burglary, drug possession, and evading arrest.
He is described by law enforcement officials as a habitual violent offender who has had numerous prior run-ins with police.
Records indicate Keene was previously arrested for threatening a man with a firearm several months ago and, in a separate incident, assaulted another inmate while in custody at the Travis County Jail.
In both cases, prosecutors later declined to pursue charges.
Authorities have not yet released a possible motive for the shooting or confirmed whether the suspect and victim knew each other.
The Austin Police Department’s Major Crimes Division is leading the investigation.
Anyone with information related to the incident is urged to contact the Austin Police Department or Crime Stoppers at 512-472-TIPS.
