Desmond Armond Joshua Jr, 22, was shot and killed in Orlando, Florida, on August 1, 2020. He had been employed at a Burger King for two days when a dispute began after a customer, Ashley Mason, became upset about a drive-thru delay. Mason, who was with her 13-year-old daughter, demanded a refund and left after receiving $40 but returned to the restaurant with Kelvis Rodriguez-Tormes, 41.

Witnesses say Rodriguez-Tormes confronted Joshua in the parking lot and that Mason handed a firearm to Rodriguez-Tormes during the argument. Joshua was found on his back with a single gunshot wound and later died at a hospital. The Orange County Sheriff’s Office investigated the scene. Joshua’s family and friends described him as a dedicated worker and a beloved son and friend; the community was left reeling by a death over a trivial dispute.

Did anyone see the interaction in the parking lot or have information about what led up to the shooting?
