Orlando police said the victim was taken to a hospital in stable condition.

A witness told News 6 that she was sitting on her balcony when she saw her neighbor in the parking lot. She said a car drove up and someone opened fire, striking the man.

“My neighbor got off his bike. A car came around and, ‘Pop, pop, pop,’ she said. “It was scary, so I told my roommate to call 911. He was trying to get up to walk upstairs.”
