Anthony Miranda is a man who made headlines for shooting himself in the head and losing his eye in a bizarre incident. He was also involved in a fatal shooting that killed another man in Fall River, Massachusetts. Here is what happened to him and how he ended up in this situation.

The Failed Robbery Attempt

According to Genius Celebs, Miranda shot himself in the ankle while fumbling with the gun. He was trying to rob a driver who had a concealed carry license and fought back. The driver managed to grab the gun from Miranda and shoot him several times in the chest and abdomen. Miranda then ran away and shot himself in the head, causing his eye to pop out of its socket.

Miranda was taken to a hospital where he underwent surgery and survived. He was charged with armed robbery, aggravated battery, and possession of a firearm by a felon.

The Fatal Bar Fight

Miranda was also involved in a deadly shooting that occurred outside the Riverside Sports Bar and Grill in Fall River on October 10, 2022. He was one of three men who got into a fight with another group of men after leaving the bar around 1:30 a.m.

According to The Herald News, Jose Roberto Zelaya, 45, was trying to help break up the fight when he was shot in the chest by one of the men from Miranda’s group. Zelaya was pronounced dead at the scene. Miranda and his two accomplices fled the scene but were later arrested by the police.

Miranda was charged with manslaughter, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, assault and battery with the discharge of a firearm, carrying an illegal firearm, and carrying a loaded illegal firearm. He was held without bail and arraigned on October 12, 2022.

The Aftermath

Miranda is currently awaiting trial for both cases. He faces up to 20 years in prison for the manslaughter charge and up to life in prison for the armed robbery charge. He also lost his right eye due to the self-inflicted gunshot wound and has to wear an eye patch.

Miranda’s case is a tragic example of how violence can escalate and have fatal consequences. He not only harmed himself but also took the life of an innocent bystander who was trying to stop the fight. His actions have caused grief and pain for both his family and Zelaya’s family.
