When the men had walked out of the store, deputies attempted to take down one of them, leading to a deputy-involved shooting.

The charging affidavit did not specify what led to the deputies firing their weapons, however.

The men were identified as Michael Gomez, 18, and Joseph Lowe, 19, who were taken to the hospital. They were both charged with petty theft.

In a press release, authorities said they were trying to detain four suspects when the shooting occurred. The parking lot had been blocked off with investigation tape.

One of the four suspects was killed in the shooting, according to The Osceola County Sheriff’s Office.

Two people were hurt trying to run away from the area while another person had a shrapnel injury to their hand.
