A gunman described by Florida police as “a disgruntled employee” shot dead five former colleagues at a business in suburban Orlando on Monday before killing himself, investigators said. The fourth male victim was taken to the Orlando regional medical centre with gunshot wounds but died there. Demings said Neumann did not use the knife and appeared to have shot himself as deputies prepared to enter the building. “This is likely a workplace violence incident,” Demings said. Rick Scott, the Florida governor, issued a statement noting that the incident came close to the first anniversary of the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando that left 49 dead.
