A suspect was taken into custody after an Orlando journalist and a 9-year-old child were killed and two others were shot in Pine Hills Wednesday afternoon.
Keith Melvin Moses, 19, a career criminal with a lengthy rap sheet, sneered and smiled as he was handcuffed on Wednesday in connection to the three shootings – which police believe are all linked.
The first fatality occurred at 11.17am on Wednesday morning, on 6100 block of Hialeah Street – where Orange County Sheriff’s Deputies found a 20-year-old woman with gunshot wounds. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
At that scene, deputies found two Spectrum News 13 employees shot. One of them died and the other is in critical condition.
“It is unclear if [the suspect] knew if they were news media or not,” Mina said. “We’re still trying to work all of that out. That vehicle was almost exactly in the same spot as the vehicle from the homicide this morning. So it’s unclear why exactly they were targeted.”
