An Orlando teenager was arrested Wednesday on a charge of manslaughter in the fatal shooting of a 4-year-old last month.<\/p>\n
Brandon Sir Nevaeh McCloud, 18, was arrested after an investigation found he had handled a gun in a careless manner, resulting in the child\u2019s death, the Orlando Police Department said in a news release. He is in custody at the Orange County Jail.<\/p>\n
Orlando police responded around 11:30 a.m. July 17 to reports of a shooting at the Stella West Apartments complex just off Silver Star Road, a short distance away from Evans High School. The four-year-old was found with a gunshot wound and later died at the hospital, the release said. Police did not say if the child was a boy or a girl.<\/p>\n
The investigation into the death is ongoing, they said, and no other information was included in the release.<\/p>\n
McCloud was previously arrested July 28 on a charge of resisting officers without violence after he fled police who were trying to collect his DNA as part of a search warrant. Officers used a Taser on McCloud after he didn\u2019t listen to initial commands to stop, court records show.<\/p>\n
His arrest affidavit in that case doesn\u2019t say if the warrant was related to the investigation into the child\u2019s death.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An Orlando teenager was arrested Wednesday on a charge of manslaughter in the fatal shooting of a 4-year-old…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":363706,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[112,28,114,266,115,1335,139,141,140,109],"class_list":["post-363705","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-orlando","tag-crime-and-public-safety","tag-florida","tag-latest-headlines","tag-local-news","tag-news","tag-orange-county","tag-orlando","tag-orlando-headlines","tag-orlando-news","tag-social"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/363705","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=363705"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/363705\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/363706"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=363705"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=363705"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=363705"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
