A man shot and killed a woman then returned to the same neighbourhood hours later and shot four more people, killing a journalist covering the original shooting and a nine-year-old girl, police in Florida have said.

Orange County Sheriff John Mina characterised the shootings in Orlando on Wednesday as random acts of violence. Mr Mina said during a news conference that 19-year-old Keith Melvin Moses has been arrested and charged with first-degree murder in the initial shooting that killed Nathacha Augustin, 38, and that “numerous more charges” would follow.
