Joslyn Michael Gray, a 49-year-old Black man from Orlando, was killed in the early hours of March 23, 2024, during a shooting at an after-hours gathering in the Pine Hills area of Orange County. Deputies responded about 3:34 a.m. to reports of gunfire near North Pine Hills Road and Silver Star Road and found Gray and another man, Errol Sylvester Irving, with gunshot wounds; both were pronounced dead at the scene. The shooting happened inside a unit in a shopping plaza being operated as an alleged illicit after-hours club, not inside the neighboring Creole Bakery.

Investigators later concluded Gray was specifically targeted. Authorities say Christopher Daveian Haynes approached Gray, drew a firearm and shot him multiple times; Irving was struck while standing near Gray. Video from the party and multiple witness identifications led detectives to obtain an arrest warrant for Haynes on April 22, 2024. He was located by U.S. Marshals in Nashville on May 22, 2024, extradited to Orange County, and on June 26, 2024 a grand jury indicted him on two counts of first-degree murder with a firearm. The charges are allegations; no motive has been publicly disclosed.

Did anyone at the gathering or in Pine Hills that night see something that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
