Orange County Sheriffs Chase Down Latino With a Gun

**WARNING: THIS VIDEO CONTAINS GRAPHIC IMAGES AND LANGUAGE. VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.**

As part of the Orange County Sheriff’s Office’s commitment to transparency, it is our policy to release body-worn camera video of critical incidents, including deputy-involved shootings. We believe it is important for our community to have access to the full context of these incidents, rather than rely on short snippets they may see elsewhere.

On July 5, 2025, at approximately 1 a.m., deputies were responding to an intersection takeover by a group of street racers at Orlando Central Parkway and President’s Drive when a man fled on foot. When deputies caught up to the man, they saw that he had a gun in his hand. Two of our deputies discharged their service weapons, striking the man. Deputies rendered first aid and he was transported to the hospital.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is investigating the shooting and will turn over its findings to the State Attorney’s Office for review. Once that process is completed, OCSO will conduct its own internal investigation. The deputies who fired their service weapons are on temporary, paid administrative leave pending the initial FDLE review. The video is being released pursuant to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office Release of Video Recordings in Critical Incidents policy. The investigation into the shooting is still under way.
