Fitness influencer Khuslen Khan has been arrested after investigators accused him of shooting and pistol-whipping an Uber Eats driver who returned to a Miami-Dade apartment complex hoping to get his girlfriend’s phone number.
Khan, whose legal name is Khuslen Saruultuya, is a 33-year-old fitness model. In a 2015 Wire Magazine interview, he said he modeled, trained clients, and ran a business with a friend selling diet and workout plans.
The shooting happened early October 12 and was reported by WSVN. Miami-Dade court records list attempted felony murder and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon in one case, plus nine drug-related charges in another.
Deputies say driver was shot while lying on the ground
According to the arrest report, the driver briefly spoke with the woman while delivering food, then returned about 50 minutes later hoping to see her again. He could not find her and was walking back to his vehicle when Saruultuya allegedly arrived in a gray Corvette.
Investigators allege Saruultuya pointed a handgun at the driver and ordered him to lie down. He allegedly fired a shot that grazed the driver’s right buttock, then struck the back of his head with the gun, leaving a two-inch wound.
The driver told deputies Saruultuya subsequently pointed the weapon at his head and said, “I am going to kill you.” The woman reportedly pleaded, “Babe, please stop!” The driver escaped and drove himself to South Miami Hospital.
Law&Crime reported that investigators traced a license plate provided by a witness to Saruultuya’s Corvette. The driver also identified him in a photo lineup.
The shooting affidavit states that, after his arrest, Saruultuya told deputies the firearm used in the incident was inside his personal bag, which he believed was in his residence.
A separate drug affidavit says deputies saw suspected drugs during an initial sweep of the apartment, then obtained a search warrant. Investigators described a bedroom used to prepare and package narcotics and reported seizing $11,394.
Saruultuya’s attorney, Gennaro Cariglio Jr., filed a written not-guilty plea in the shooting case on October 13 and requested a jury trial. The county’s custody record listed him at Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center when checked October 14, with a no-bond hold on the attempted felony murder count.
