Surveillance video captured a 19-year-old man firing multiple rounds into a home in Oviedo on Wednesday evening, Feb. 26, 2026, police and local news footage show. Oviedo police located and arrested the suspect, identified as Dayveon Deshawn Perry, and transported him to the Seminole County Jail; authorities say multiple felony charges were filed.

Local reporting lists the charges against Perry as broad and severe. “He's being charged with multiple felonies, including two counts of attempted homicide, weapon offense, missile into dwelling, aggravated assault, obstructing justice and damage to property, criminal mischief,” according to the coverage of the case.

Oviedo police were called earlier the same day after the suspect allegedly tried to talk to the adult victim and younger girls inside the home; the victim declined to speak with Perry and called police to have him trespassed. “As the victim returned home later in the day, he saw Perry running up to him with a gun in his hand. That's when the victim said Perry began shooting at him,” the report states. The victim, his girlfriend and several juveniles were inside the residence when the shooting occurred; one juvenile was described as “about to identify the shooter as Dayveon ‘Pezzy’ Perry,” and officers at the scene said they were familiar with the name from prior law enforcement interactions.

WESH video and surveillance stills describe the scene in the Doctors Court neighborhood and identify specific locations. “Oviedo police were called to the scene of 689 Doctors Court for a report of a man wearing a blue sweatshirt, grey shorts and slides who started shooting through the front door of the residence,” the report says. Video footage shows the suspect running up from the left side of the street and firing several shots while standing in the front yard of the duplex next door; photos from the surveillance footage clearly show the clothing described.

On-scene evidence tied to the shooting was documented by officers. “Officers found several shell casings near 692 Doctors Court as well as damage to the outside of the home. More bullets were later found in the living room,” the report states. The record does not reconcile why both 689 and 692 Doctors Court were cited; both addresses were listed in initial reporting.

Officers located Perry at 410 Fontana Cir. He was taken into custody. “When officers asked where the gun might be, Perry admitted to throwing the weapon into the woods behind his apartment complex,” the report says. The coverage does not state whether the weapon was recovered after that admission. Booking details, bond information and a court date were not provided in the reporting available.

Investigators and prosecutors will need to clarify several outstanding items as the case moves forward, including whether the firearm was recovered, the exact number of shots fired and whether anyone in the home was struck. For now, surveillance footage, shell casings near 692 Doctors Court and the suspect’s admission to discarding a weapon behind his apartment complex form the core evidence described in the arrest report.
