Deputies: 62-year-old man shot, killed at south Orlando home

ORLANDO, Fla. — A 62-year-old man was shot and killed at a home in south Orlando on Sunday evening, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office said.

Deputies found the man, whom they have not identified, with a gunshot wound to the chest around 6 p.m. at 1456 35th St.

The suspect, a 37-year-old man, was located at the scene and “secured,” deputies said.

Firefighters transported the victim to Orlando Regional Medical Center, where he died.

Investigators said the fatal shooting started as a fight during a night of gambling at the home. Video of the scene shows chips scattered across a table.

Neighbors said gambling nights happen at the home often, but that they've never turned violent before.

The investigation is still active.
