On Saturday evening, shortly before midnight, officers with the Orlando Police Department were dispatched to Dezerland, an amusement park located on International Drive in Central Florida, approximately ten miles northeast of the Walt Disney World Resort. A person had reportedly fired shots into a crowded parking lot at Dezerland Park, injuring three 14-year-olds. On the night of the shooting, the minors were transported to nearby Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children, located five miles from Dezerland. One of the young victims was listed in critical condition.
