Six people were shot and one woman was killed in a shooting outside a nightclub in Ocala Sunday morning. Since the club is outside the city limits, the Sheriff’s Office quickly arrived at the scene.
Deputies said 19-year-old Benetria Robinson was dead and five others had various injuries from the shooting. Three of the victims were listed in serious but stable condition, and two suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
Five others were taken to the hospital. Their names are not being released for their protection. Hundreds of interviews are now underway.
Marion County and Ocala detectives are conducting a joint investigation and are looking for witnesses. The Ocala Police Department has joined with the Marion County Sheriff’s Office in an effort to track down witnesses and search for the gunman or gunmen in this incident.
