Nathaniel Reid appears in bond court in Broward County.
Two men argued then squared off between crowded auto repair shops in Hollywood, throwing punches and wrestling on the ground before a gun went off twice leaving one man with a foot wound, police said.
Nathaniel Nijah Reid, 29, was on the losing end of the fight until he fired the shots and walked away, according to the arrest report.

“Bigs, get off me. I’m not going to shoot you. Somebody help me,” the report quoted Reid as saying.
One of the two witnesses tried to break up the fight and heard the two shots, police said.
Surveillance video from a business security camera showed the fight, Reid pulling a handgun from his pocket, the two men struggling for the gun, and then the gunfire, investigators said.
