Mugshot of Keber Martinez
Alleged shooter Keber Martinez was charged with attempted murder and assault.

A man accused of opening fire inside a Bronx hospital in a brazen act of gun violence caught on camera has been indicted, officials said Thursday.

Keber Martinez, 25, allegedly shot 35-year-old Ruben Perez in the emergency room at Jacobi Medical Center on Jan. 25 after checking himself in for issues with his asthma, authorities said.

A grand jury recently handed up an indictment on charges of attempted murder, assault and other weapons counts, and Martinez was arraigned Wednesday, according to the Bronx DA’s Office.

“The defendant allegedly opened fire near patients including a mother and her baby, as well as emergency healthcare professionals, who ran for their lives,” Bronx DA Darcel Clark said.

A judge ordered Martinez to be held without bail.
