ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- After hours of questioning, Orange County Sheriff's deputies released the man whose girlfriend was found shot and killed early Saturday morning.
Homicide detectives were called to the couple’s home on Prince Street in Orlando at 2:00 Saturday morning, but neighbors said they heard gunfire several hours before that.
WFTV talked to several neighbors who said they heard at least one gun shot at 8:00 Friday night. Neighbors say about half an hour later they remember hearing someone take the couple’s children away in a minivan. They don’t know who left with the small children, but say they returned to the home a short time later.
Six hours later, Orange County sheriff’s deputies were called to the home. Investigators said, when they arrived, they found 28-year-old Jill Morris with a gunshot wound. Morris was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center where she died.
Morris’ boyfriend, 25-year-old Richard Reagan, was questioned, but was not charged or named as a suspect in the murder. Investigators say their investigation is ongoing.
Investigators confirmed that the woman’s two children were not home at the time of the shooting, but would not say where they were.
