Man with shotgun taken into custody near Orange County school

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — The Orange County Sheriff's Office said a shotgun was seized from an armed man in east Orange County.

Robert William Vinn, 19, a white male was dressed all in black and spotted carrying a shotgun near East River High School and Corner Lakes Elementary School, according to investigators. Both schools were locked down as a precaution.

Deputies said they recovered a 12-gauge shotgun with three rounds. The shotgun was disassembled, officials said. Schools were advised the area is secure.

The Sheriff's Office sent a tweet around 4 p.m. saying a man was arrested near East River High School Friday afternoon. They later said that the man was not arrested.
