A 19-year-old Florida man with a juvenile record has been arrested in fatal shootings spreading over two scenes.
A man riding in a car with his cousin shot and killed another passenger then returned to the same neighborhood near Orlando hours later and shot four more people, killing a journalist covering the original shooting and a 9-year-old girl, Florida police and witnesses said.
Flowers and notes were left at a small makeshift memorial in front of the emergency room at Orlando Regional Medical Center Thursday, Feb. 23, 2023, in Orlando, Fla. A TV journalist and a child were shot and killed yesterday and several others were injured at a scene where a woman was found killed earlier in the day. Mina said Thursday that investigators do not know the motive for any of the shootings. He said Moses is a known gang member but that the shootings didn’t appear to be gang-related.
The Office of the Public Defender for Orange and Osceola counties, which is representing Moses, declined to comment. “I want to acknowledge the brave WFTV news crew who was there and witnessed the shooting and rendered aid to the victims until our deputies arrived,” Mina said. During Thursday’s news conference, State Attorney Monique H. Worrell said her office had received multiple calls asking why Moses was not in custody from previous offenses.
