Five people were fatally shot in Orlando, Fla. after a gunman opened fire at an industrial site, reports WFTV Channel 9. The incident, which occurred around 8:30 a.m. on North Forsyth Road in Orange County, also left the gunman dead.
As of press time, officials say the incident does not appear to be terror-related.
The Orange County Sheriff’s Office tweeted at 9:12 a.m.: “OCSO working shooting scene that has stabilized. Multiple fatalities. Situation contained. Sheriff will brief as soon as info is accurate.”
An update from WFTV Channel 9 posted at 10:35 a.m. says Shelley Adams received a call from her sister, who was inside the building as the shooting took place.
From WFTV Channel 9:
“She just kept saying, ‘I’m OK; I’m OK,’” Adams said. “She just kept saying, ‘My boss is dead; my boss is dead.’”
Adams said McIntyre was in a bathroom when she came out and saw someone on the floor.
“We’re just going to embrace her and not leave her alone and just be there as a family,” Adams said. “It’s unbelievable that it could happen in a small business.”
