Gunshots caught on video in Orlando shooting that left 7 injured

Police are still looking for a suspect in the downtown Orlando shooting

Police in Orlando, Florida, are investigating a shooting that took place following a "large fight" that broke out in the downtown area of the city Sunday morning.

The incident, in which seven people were injured, took place at approximately 2 a.m., when patrons were exiting bars, nightclubs, and restaurants in the Florida hot spot, Police Chief Eric D. Smith said that one of the people involved in the fight "pulled out a handgun and fired into the crowd."

One person who was struck by a bullet recounted her experience to Orlando’s Fox35.

"When the gunshots went off I felt a sharp stinging in my stomach and hip and I looked over briefly and that’s when I saw the lights going off from the gun, so I took off running in the other direction," Taliyah said.

"I think it’s really upsetting in a world, in a country, where you’re going out to have an innocent time and almost lose your life," she added. "It’s surreal honestly."

Law enforcement officials have yet to identify a suspect.
