A late-night stop at a Winter Park bar turned into a crime scene early Monday after a shooting outside the Tequila Lounge on Aloma Avenue sent one man to the hospital, according to deputies.
The call for shots fired came in around 3 a.m. Monday, responding Orange County deputies found a man believed to be in his 30s injured in the parking lot. He was taken to a hospital, but it remained unclear whether he had actually been shot, according to ClickOrlando.
The Orange County Sheriff’s Office told the outlet that the suspects took off before deputies arrived and had not been tracked down as of Monday morning. Investigators stayed at the scene into the morning hours as detectives worked to piece together what unfolded outside the lounge.
