Our hearts are heavy with grief over the passing of our coworker and the other lives taken today. Our condolences go out to our employee's family, friends, and fellow workers in this trying time. We continue to hope for the full recovery of our other colleague who was wounded. This is a devastating loss for the Orlando community.[7]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre also tweeted condolences, saying: “Our hearts go out to the family of the journalist killed today and the crew member injured in Orange County, Florida, as well as the whole Spectrum News team.”[8]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

At a news conference on Wednesday, Orange County Sheriff John Mina declared, “Nobody in our community – not a mom, not a nine-year-old, and absolutely not a news reporter – should ever be a victim of gun violence.”[9]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

WESH reporter Luana Munoz added, \u201cThis is every reporter\u2019s absolutely worst nightmare. We go home at night afraid that something like this will occur and that is what happened here.\u201d[10]<\/a><\/sup> FOX 35 is verifying more details and collecting extra data.[4]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n
