Officer Alfred L. Gordon Sr., 52, was killed on October 4, 2007, during an attempted robbery at an ATM at Silver Star Road and North Hiawassee Road in Orange County, Florida. He was off duty and returning to his car at about 1:00 am when two juveniles armed with a handgun approached him. Although Officer Gordon drew his off-duty weapon, he was shot twice before he could return fire and was later found in his car with his gun on his lap; his department identification was on the ground nearby.

Two juveniles were arrested two days after the shooting; one had recently been released from custody after serving several years for an armed robbery. Both were charged with first-degree murder, and the case resulted in convictions and life sentences on August 9, 2009. Officer Gordon was a U.S. Army veteran who served 11 years as a Military Police officer and earned two Army Commendation Medals and an Army Achievement Medal. He had served 18 and a half years with the Orlando Police Department, assigned to Orlando International Airport, and is survived by a son and two daughters.

Did anyone in the community have contact with Officer Gordon in the days before the shooting or information about who targeted that ATM that night?
