Records show the shooting occurred Friday night on A. Phillip Randolph Boulevard.

For 33 years, Edward Clayton Taylor, 57, was imprisoned. Just a month ago, his conviction in a 1986 sexual assault of a 4-year-old girl was vacated. Authorities confirmed to News4JAX on Monday that Taylor was arrested and charged with attempted murderAuthorities confirmed to News4JAX on Monday that Taylor was arrested and charged with attempted murder.

According to the report, the suspect confirmed being at the scene, but told police he heard a single gunshot, prompting him to get in his vehicle and leave. The report states that he “advised that his vehicle began receiving gunfire because there were bullets being shot through it. He then stepped on the gas to accelerate the vehicle, which is when he realized one of his tires was flat.

“In the three years since his release, the CIR thoroughly investigated the matter and discovered evidence that had not been disclosed to Taylor’s defense. This failure, in conjunction with other errors and the victim’s recantation, informed the State’s decision to consent to Taylor’s post-conviction motion. We stand by the CIR’s work in that case, which can be found in detail“As in all cases, the State will review Taylor’s unrelated arrest and make a filing decision.

The child tested positive for a sexually transmitted disease, which led to a law enforcement investigation.
