A Florida man was denied bond Monday on a murder charge stemming from a weekend shooting that started with a complaint about loud music and ended with a teenager dead . A statement by the Jacksonville Sheriff 's Office described a Friday-night confrontation in a gas station parking lot that escalated into at least eight shots being fired at a car carrying a group of teenagers . Seventeen-year-old Jordan Davis , among the teens , was fatally wounded . Forty-five-year-old Michael Dunn of Brevard County , Florida , was arrested Saturday and charged in the fatal shooting . According to the statement from the Jacksonville Sheriff 's Office , Dunn told authorities that he had asked the teens to turn down loud music from their vehicle adjacent to his , as he waited while his girlfriend , who was returning with him from a wedding , went inside the gas station to make a purchase . Dunn told police he felt threatened by the response from the teens , the statement said . Dunn 's attorney , Robin Lemonidis , told CNN Monday that Dunn told police that he reacted after having seen a gun barrel in the window of the teens ' car and after hearing a profanity-laced string of threats against him and his girlfriend while the teens motioned they were opening the door . Lemonidis said that was when Dunn reached for his gun and opened fire on the vehicle . She added that , `` When all the evidence has been flushed out , I believe that it will be extremely clear that Mr. Dunn acted as any responsible firearm owner would have under the same circumstances . '' Eight or nine shots were fired at the teens ' car , the Jacksonville Sheriff 's Office statement added . There were no guns found inside the teens ' car , the statement said . Lemonidis said her client and his girlfriend left the scene after the shooting , fearing that they had encountered gang members and that more would follow . The couple went to a local hotel for the night , and saw the news the next morning that Davis had died . They returned to Dunn 's home in Brevard County , where local police arrested him Saturday on an out-of-county warrant . Dunn was arraigned Monday afternoon , and Lemonidis said she entered a not-guilty plea on her client 's behalf . Ron Davis , the victim 's father , told CNN affiliate WAWS that he wants to see justice , `` Whether it be through the legal system or to God . God 's going to punish him for that , so me , I do n't want to do anything to him . ''
