A man in his 40s was injured in a shooting Tuesday night in the Pine Hills neighborhood, officials have confirmed. The incident occurred at approximately 9:15 p.m. on Lejeune Drive and the victim sought help at the intersection of North Pine Hills Road and North Lane, where he was found by Orlando police, according to ClickOrlando.
Details regarding the circumstances of the shooting remain scant, but the man reported being attacked on Lejeune Drive. He has been transported to a local hospital with injuries not considered to be life-threatening, a detail that came out of an injured man being located at the nearby intersection, as reported by ClickOrlando.
As of now, there has been no information released about potential suspects or arrests made in connection with the incident. The area of the shooting, a stretch of streets with homes closely set together, was likely active at the time, raising concerns about community safety and the prevalence of gun violence.
The ongoing investigation into the shooting has been taken over by the Orange County Sheriff's Office. If any arrests were made in connection to the shooting of the adult male victim, it remains unclear, as detailed by WESH.
