Fdle examines the shooting of Jonathan Flores

What we know:

A man was fatally shot by the Orlando police in the early Easter morning after he allegedly refused to drop his gun during a confrontation in the city center. The Orlando police identified the man as Jonathan Flores.

Officers said they had reacted to reports on a fight outside of Thrive Cocktail Lounge when they came across Flores who was armed. The body cameras released by OPD shows that the suspect's weapon falls out of his pants before the officials hired.

The police say Flores shot a round of the air before the authorities arrived, which was in panic when there were circumstances. Officers say Flores have no commands to disarm and have been shot several times. He later died in the hospital.

What we don't know:

It remains unclear how many officers have derived their weapons or how many shots were fired. Officials have not released whether Flores had a permit for the weapon, whether he knew someone who was involved in the initial argument or how his intentions were. Toxicology and autopsy results have not yet been published.

The background story:

The incident unfolded a popular nightlife in the city center of Orlando. Witnesses reported on a fight that escalated when Flores supposedly swung a firearm. Video recordings are said to show a chaotic scene when the weapon fell from Flores' Bund and later a single shot was fired into the air. Shortly afterwards the officials arrived and confronted Flores.

The incident once again raises questions about the night life safety in the entertainment district of Orlando when the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) contributed to the OPD examination.
