ORLANDO, Fla. – A 16-year-old boy and a 24-year-old man were shot late Sunday near the University of Central Florida, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office said.
The shooting was reported at 10:20 p.m. at 12024 Walden Woods Drive off State Road 434, south of UCF.
Sheriff’s officials said deputies were called to the area and learned that the wounded man was dropped off at Advent Health East by his girlfriend.
