Simon Silva, a 66 year-old Miami resident, lived and worked on the property of his unnamed boss and de facto landlord until he was fired earlier this week. Silva began making arrangements to move out, but the landlord seemingly grew impatient yesterday and disconnected the air condition during a 90+ degree Miami day. Silva got angry, which is understandable given the weather, and the two got in a heated dispute over the hot situation, according to police documents.
What isn't understandable is why Silva pulled out a gun and shot the man and another unidentified victim. The other victim was not involved in the argument. The landlord later died of his injuries at Jackson Memorial Hospital. The second victim is currently in the hospital in stable condition.
Silva later confessed to the police. He's being charged with 2nd degree murder and attempted murder.
