ORLANDO, Fla. — Orlando police are searching for the men they said shot and killed a man during a robbery Saturday night.
Police found Robert Bosso, 28, dead when they arrived at the Verona Valencia Apartments on the 1600 block of Kirkman Road just before midnight.
Homicide detectives said three to five men robbed the victim before the shooting.
Channel 9 learned Bosso graduated from the University of Central Florida in 2013 and worked for Lockheed Martin until recently.
Resident Keith McKenzie was shocked to learn of the violence in his neighborhood.
“It’s crazy, I just moved here three months ago,” he said. “I moved here for gated communities and stuff like that, and it’s a travesty that we have violence like this around here.”
The apartment complex is across the street from Valencia College. It’s closed off to the public by gates, but residents said the security is easy to bypass.
“We do notice frequently a lot of people run the gates or hold the gates open for people, so we try to do our best to be proactive and tell people when we see them running the gates or holding them open,” said resident Jeffrey Via.
Signs on the gates said the gates are timed for only one vehicle to go through, but Channel 9 cameras caught more than one car get in at a time.
Detectives interviewed a witness to the shooting, but haven’t released additional details.
Anyone with information on the robbery or shooting is asked to call Crimeline at 407-423-TIPS.
