3 weeks ago
Police in Florida say two people were killed and six others were wounded in two shootings by a single gunman that took place among thousands of costumed revelers during a Halloween street celebration in downtown Orlando. Police Chief Eric Smith says officers responded to a report of shots fired in the city’s downtown shortly after 1 a.m. Friday. A second shooting minutes later happened within a short distance of officers and they quickly made an arrest. Smith says the six wounded adults were in stable condition. Florida State Attorney Andrew Baine says charging the 17-year-old male suspect as an adult is a possibility.
