1 dead, 2 injured after overnight shooting in Orlando
ORLANDO, Fla. - Orlando police are investigating a triple shooting that left one man dead early Sunday morning.
Police say the shooting happened just before 1 a.m. near the intersection of Polk Street and Benson Avenue.
The incident reportedly occurred during a street party of about 200 people.
One person was killed at the scene, according to police. Another victim was shot in the leg and another shot in the shoulder and leg.
They were both reportedly taken to the hospital.
Shafronda Reese says she was sitting on her porch when she heard gunshots.
"I ran. Bullets ain't got no name. I'm not sticking around to see who’s shooting, where it’s coming from, none of that. I get out of the way," she says.
Police say it appears the suspect is on the run; however, they say it's still too early in the investigation to know for certain.
"You ought to be sorry. It’s sad and give yourself in. For real though. It’s crazy," said Smooth Hall.
"We need to come together as a community, we need to pray," said Reese.
