BUFFALO, N.Y. — A Buffalo man has admitted to shooting two people during a fight last summer.
Brandon M. Bott, 24, pleaded guilty Tuesday to one count of Assault in the First Degree, one count of Attempted Assault in the First Degree , and one count of Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Second Degree.
Investigators say Bott intentionally shot a male victim after a brief fight on Fuhrmann Boulevard in the early morning hours of August 30, 2020.
A female victim was also shot during the attack. The Erie County District Attorney's Office says the woman suffered a serious injury to her leg that required surgery and several days at a local hospital. She continues to recover from her injuries.
The male victim was treated and released.
Bott could face five to 25-years in prison when he is sentenced in April. He is currently being held without bail.
