Overview
- Family members identified the deceased as 20-year-old tattoo artist Kaleb Williams and say he was working, unarmed, and not a suspect.
- Orlando police say they were serving a drug- and weapons-related warrant when a man with an AK-47-style rifle exited and reentered the shop, prompting officers to fire within minutes of arriving.
- Officers entered about an hour later and found a person dead inside the business, and no officers were injured.
- Police have not released the victim’s name, have not confirmed any arrests, and have not said whether the person who died was among those sought in the warrant.
- FDLE is conducting the investigation, officers involved are on paid administrative leave, and authorities have not said who fired the fatal shot as mourners gathered at a vigil calling for accountability.
