Deputies need help identifying persons of interest in deadly home invasion

Man, woman could be connected to crime

ORLANDO, Fla. – Deputies from the Orange County Sheriff's Office are seeking the public's help in identifying a man and a woman who could be connected to a deadly home invasion earlier this month.

Alex Correa, 20, was shot Jan. 14 during a struggle at a home on Port Simbor Avenue.

Few details about the crime have been released, but Correa's family told News 6 that four men broke into the home.

On Monday, deputies tweeted photos of a man, woman and vehicle, asking for the public's help in identifying the pair.

The woman is between 5 feet, 4 inches tall and 5 feet, 7 inches tall and between 110 pounds and 130 pounds. She was wearing a purple shirt, baggy athletic pants and purple sneakers. The man is between 5 feet, 7 inches and 5 feet, 9 inches tall, approximately 130 to 150 pounds, and was wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, ripped jeans and black sneakers.

Deputies also provided a picture of a black 2008-2012 Nissan Altima that was seen in the area around the time of the shooting.

Stacy Deligne and William Correa said their son was a kind young man and they're hoping to have answers about his death soon.

"No doubt in my mind that they're working  hard to bring justice and closure," Deligne said.

William Correa begged anyone with information about the crime to come forward.

"If you know anything, if you saw anything, if you have a video in your house around the neighborhood and you haven't put it out there, put it out there. Give it to the police, all the police," William Correa said. "You might not think it's significant but maybe it is."

Anyone who recognizes the pair is asked to call Crimeline at 800-423-TIPS (8477).
