Moses Baptiste, a 34-year-old Orlando resident, was shot and killed on March 28, 2016. The shooting occurred on Orange Blossom Trail near Kaley Avenue at about 2 p.m. Witnesses said he was shot multiple times after an argument on the sidewalk. He was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center and died during surgery.

Investigators arrested 28-year-old Tiano Rocco Risse of West Palm Beach and charged him with first-degree murder in connection with Baptiste’s death. Reports note Risse had prior convictions, including a year-long prison sentence in 2009 for possession of a controlled substance and grand theft. Witness accounts tied the fatal shooting to the earlier argument between Baptiste and Risse.

Baptiste was born in St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands and moved to Florida as a toddler. He had served prison sentences in 2009 and 2012 for selling cocaine. His family described his death as a profound loss and urged witnesses to come forward with information. Does anyone have further information about the shooting or the events that preceded it?
