ALTAMONTE SPRINGS, FL – The Seminole County Sheriff’s Office Major Crimes Unit is currently investigating a shooting that occurred overnight at 303 Teakwood Lane in unincorporated Altamonte Springs. According to authorities, at approximately 11:30 p.m., deputies responded to a shooting with injuries.

Upon arrival, they discovered two males had been shot. One of the victims, identified as Kyle Cornelius Scott, 33, of Longwood, died at the scene. The other victim was transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. His name is not being released at this time as Florida law protects the identity of persons who witness a homicide for up to three years.

Detectives are working to identify the suspect who is still at large.
