The 14-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy allegedly broke into a home and opened fire on the responding Volusia County Sheriff's deputies.
A 14-year-old girl who allegedly attempted to shoot deputies during a standoff in Florida earlier this year will stand trial as an adult, the Associated Press reported.
The girl was charged as an adult with attempted first-degree murder of a law enforcement officer, burglary of a dwelling while armed, and criminal mischief that caused damage of $1,000 or more, the AP reported. In 2018, she was charged with grand theft after stealing a dog that was worth $1,500. She was sent to a teen court for the offense but did not follow the requirements imposed on her, according to the AP.
She was also forced to undergo additional mental health evaluations in 2019, once after threatening to take her own life and another time for disclosing that she attempted to fatally overdose on prescription drugs, the records said. The girl also started five fires in a wooded lot in April.
