Four officer-involved shootings. Eight days. One county.

The most recent was a shootout Sunday in the parking lot of a Publix on Hoffner Avenue. What investigators said they started as a domestic violence situation ended as a deadly encounter when deputies arrived on the scene.

On Monday Orlando Police Chief John Mina and Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings spoke candidly about the recent rash of shootings.

“There’s a segment, a small percentage of society out there that don’t want to follow the laws and don’t want to play by the rules and for whatever reason, want to attack law enforcement,” said Chief Mina.

Sheriff Demings had a similar answer.

“Well, just a lot of craziness going on in society right now, a lot of violent crime, some of it is part of the backdrop of what’s going on across the country,” said Sheriff Demings.

Also Sunday an off-duty Orlando Police officer confronted an armed man at the Club Lux on international drive.

And it’s not just shootings, law enforcement officers are under attack in other ways.

“No question, a recent spike in the number of incidents involving law enforcement who have been assaulted,” said Sheriff Demings.
