Responding to a report of shots fired just before 7 a.m. on Monday, law enforcement officials discovered two victims with gunshot wounds who were subsequently transported to the hospital for treatment.
In connection with the shooting, two male suspects have been taken into custody, and they, too, were transported to the hospital. The severity of their injuries remains undisclosed at this time. Due to the incident, the northbound lanes of South Orange Blossom Trail have been closed, causing disruptions to traffic flow in the area.
