A man pointed a rifle at people inside of a supermarket in Orlando.
According to the Orlando Police Department, officers recently responded to Sedano’s Supermarket at 5660 Curry Ford Road after receiving multiple calls about a Hispanic male walking around the store with a rifle and reportedly pointing it at people inside.
Once inside the store, the suspect walked around with the rifle over his shoulder. He eventually went to the jewelry counter, where he pointed the rifle at a customer, according to local law enforcement. He then pointed it at a clerk and demanded a watch.
After not receiving the watch, the suspect left the store on foot and headed westbound out of the parking lot, according to OPD.
Responding police officers located the suspect at a nearby bus stop, still in possession of the rifle.
OPD officers made contact with him and ordered him to put down the weapon and get on the ground. The suspect complied and was taken into custody.
According to the Orlando Police Department, Juby Manuel Vera was arrested for attempted robbery with a firearm and aggravated assault with a firearm (x2).
