Detectives believe one or both of the assailants, men in their 20s, hit the victim’s head with a handgun before running away. One was wearing a red hoodie with black shorts, the other was wearing a blue hoodie with long pants, and both had masks on, according to the USPIS.

Surveillance video from a doorbell camera at a home in Walden Circle shows the two men walking and was shared as authorities seek information from the public.

Should anyone see these individuals in public, officials said they should take no action to apprehend them.

Orlando police ask that those with knowledge of the suspects’ whereabouts call detectives at 911 or 321-235-5300. A call may also be made to the USPIS by dialing 877-876-2455 and saying “Law enforcement.”
