No bond for man arrested in officer-involved shooting

New details have emerged about Cliff Francois, a felon arrested after an officer-involved shooting in downtown Orlando on Sunday night.

ORLANDO, Fla. - New details have emerged about Cliff Francois, a felon arrested after an officer-involved shooting in downtown Orlando on Sunday night.

Francois appeared before a judge Monday afternoon and will remain behind bars.

Orlando police say Francois, who was already out on bond for a prior arrest in July, attempted to flee from officers on Sunday. He drove off, struck another vehicle, and then drove toward an officer, who fired a shot, according to the Orlando Police Department. Francois was arrested on multiple charges.

Investigators revealed that Francois had been out on bail after a previous incident, in which he allegedly fled from police nearly three months ago. State Attorney Andrew Bain addressed concerns over why a convicted felon was granted bond in the first case.
