This is getting to be a daily occurrence down here. So sad as he leaves a young wife and for the family of the other victims, one being a 9 year old little girl.
The shooting just happened last night in Orlando.

Yes, that happened over in an area called Pine Hills, otherwise known as "Crime Hills" for very good reason.

Suspect has a lengthy criminal history dating back to age 14
Moses had a rap sheet dating back to January 2018, when he was 14, and stretching through 2022, according to his criminal record by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.
The most serious of his charges include grand theft, battery - domestic violence, and armed robbery.
He was arrested in January 2018 on a grand theft of a motor vehicle charge that was amended to misdemeanor trespassing in Orange County Court. He pleaded no contest and was sentenced in February 2018 to a year of community control, which is essentially house arrest. Under community control, a person is confined to the home outside of work, school, public service hours and other officer-approved activities, according to the Florida Department of Corrections.
That same month, Moses was arrested and charged with domestic violence battery, touch or strike, records show. He pleaded no contest and was sentenced to a concurrent year of community control.
In 2015, he was arrested on a burglary charge, pleaded not guilty, and the case was dismissed.
In the following years, he had arrests after allegedly resisting an officer and violating his imposed release conditions, according to records. He was rearrested several times on failure to appear in court charges.
Moses was arrested in 2018, charged with robbery with a weapon, which was amended in court to attempted robbery with a firearm. He pleaded not guilty and was ordered to a concurrent sentence of "low-risk residential restrictiveness commitment level."
In 2021, he was arrested on a violation of his imposed conditions and charged with possessing less than 20 grams of marijuana, a misdemeanor. The case was ultimately dropped.
He was most recently rearrested last April 28 by Orlando police on a charge of failure to appear in court, according to publicly available data.
Monique H. Worrell, state attorney for the Ninth Judicial Circuit, addressed Moses' juvenile convictions Thursday.
“There has been a lot of conversation, 'Well, why was he on the street?'" she said. "Florida law prohibits me from discussing the details of any juvenile disposition ... but I will say that juvenile dispositions are not qualified as convictions."
She explained that under current law, the Department of Juvenile Justice has jurisdiction when a child is sentenced.
"That means the court nor the State Attorney’s Office has a say in what ultimately is the program or the length of time that a child is kept in a program," Worrell said.
She noted that the suspect's only adult offense was a marijuana possession. Her office did not charge him because when the quantity is that low, "the Florida Department of Law Enforcement does not test the substance and that means the State Attorney’s Office cannot prove the case."
