It is an entertainment district in Orlando, Florida, in the United States, which is crowded with people enjoying Halloween festivals.

A young man with a bag on his shoulder walks and suddenly turns around and shoots at people.

The sound of the gun turned the scene into a chaos, and the police around them also rushed in.

If you look at the video on the police body cam, you can see the suspect being arrested at the scene.

Around 1 a.m. local time, two people were killed and seven others were injured in a shooting on a street crowded with bars and restaurants in Orlando.

Police have arrested a 17-year-old suspect and are trying to determine the motive of the crime.

Orlando declared a state of emergency in its downtown entertainment district and imposed a weeklong ban on the sale of alcohol after midnight and an early morning curfew.

A little earlier, three people were killed and three others were seriously injured in a shooting at a Halloween home party in North Glen, Colorado.

By the time the police arrived after receiving a report, one had already died, and two others who had been taken to hospital had also died.

The other three people who were shot are being treated at the hospital.

Police have so far been chasing several gunmen, saying they appear to have been involved in the investigation.

Neighbors said they were scared and sad when they went around for Halloween candy together just a few hours ago.
