Orange County deputies were dispatched to the scene of a shooting in a residential area this morning. According to WFTV, the incident occurred around 10:05 a.m. on the 4800 block of Betty Sue Terrace, where a man in his 50s was discovered with a gunshot wound.
The victim was promptly taken to the hospital with serious injuries. The Orange County Sheriff's Office, shedding some light on the matter, stated that the shooting seems to be "domestic related". However, no further information was released to the public at the time.
Details remained scant as WESH confirmed a "large police presence" in the area, but what is known is that the shooting is under investigation by local authorities. The neighborhood, shocked by the sudden eruption of violence, is now caught in the aftermath of what is being treated as a private, domestic quarrel that escalated tragically.
