A 26-year-old man was fatally shot early Saturday in downtown, the Orlando Police Department said.
Shortly after 2:45 a.m., D'Javan S. Gayden was discovered lying on a sidewalk after having been shot on West Jefferson Street near North Gertrude Avenue, Orlando police Lt. Daniel Brady said.
"OPD downtown units were patrolling the area, heard gunshots and arrived on scene before calls began to come in to 911," he said. "They immediately began rendering aid and continued those measures until the fire department arrived to take over lifesaving efforts."
Gayden died from his injuries.
One of the bullets struck Roberto Osgood's car.
"I just got it from the shop yesterday," he said. "Now, I got to go back to get it fixed again."
Police said the identity of the gunman is unknown.
ORLANDO, Fla. — The shooting remains under investigation.
No other details were given.
Anyone who witnessed the shooting or who has information about it is asked to call Crimeline at 407-423-8477.
This car was struck by a bullet during the deadly shooting overnight in Downtown Orlando. The owner just picked it up 10 minutes ago. He said he tried to get it early this morning after work but couldn’t since a man was killed next to it. pic.twitter.com/TJ9ivCpYSC

There were people here when we first pulled up. It’s unclear if they witnessed the deadly shooting. But they didn’t want to talk us. They did talk to detectives pic.twitter.com/Lh60bh9vUp
