Justin De Los Santos, 20, was fatally shot just after midnight on December 14, 2024, in the 1900 block of East Colonial Drive in Orlando. Witnesses reported an altercation between De Los Santos and an unidentified person, after which the suspect drew a firearm, shot De Los Santos, and fled. Emergency responders took him to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

The Orlando Police Department canvassed the area and interviewed witnesses as part of an active investigation. The suspect remains unidentified and at large. Family and friends held a vigil at Mark Durbin Community Park in Kissimmee, a site meaningful to De Los Santos for its skate park; his obituary lists him as a Kissimmee resident and notes a visitation on December 20, 2024, at Porta Coeli Funeral Home, with burial planned later in New Jersey.
