Elias Nassah was 35 and working as a security guard at the Days Inn near the Orange County Jail in Orlando when he was shot and killed on August 8, 2021. Around 11:22 p.m. Nassah and his girlfriend were in a motel room when Nassah went to a door where 23-year-old Michael Chinn Jr. had been banging after reportedly losing his room key. A brief struggle followed and Nassah was shot multiple times. He returned to his car, told his girlfriend he had been shot, and died shortly after being taken to Orlando Health hospital.

Investigators found what looked like a handgun in Nassah’s pocket, but it was later determined to be an airsoft gun. No firearm was located on Chinn or in his room; reports say Chinn was heavily intoxicated and later told others someone had pulled a gun on him. Michael Chinn Jr. was arrested and charged with second-degree murder and held at the Orange County Jail.

Does anyone have information about Elias’s last shift or saw activity at the Days Inn that night?
