Deaths of teens connected to Windermere officer's slaying ruled suicides

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — The Orange County Medical Examiner said two teens connected to the shooting death of Windermere Police Officer Robert German died as the result of suicide.

The report said Alex Hollinghurst, 17, and Brandon Goode, 18, each died from a single gunshot wound to the head.

German was shot and killed last month while checking on the teens who were walking along a Windermere street.

The teens, both from Davenport, were found dead a short distance from where German had been shot.
