Xavier Lazu, 20, was found shot and pronounced dead at the scene on January 30, 2021, after officers from the Orlando Police Department responded to a call at an apartment complex in the 4900 block of Cason Cove Drive around 11:30 a.m. The Criminal Investigation Division opened an investigation immediately, and detectives continue to pursue leads.

No suspect information or arrests have been released publicly. In the aftermath, questions have been raised about security at the apartment complex, with some reports suggesting inadequate measures and legal commentators noting property owners’ duties to protect against foreseeable harm. The family and community remain without answers and are seeking justice.

If anyone heard or saw anything around Cason Cove Drive that morning or has information about Xavier’s death, please share what is known with investigators.
