KISSIMMEE, Florida — Authorities say two people have been wounded in a shooting at a central Florida mall, and police are trying to determine if two men found dead a short time later in a crashed vehicle are connected.

Kissimmee police said in a news release that officers responded to shots being fired at the Osceola Square Mall’s Ross Dress For Less store around 6:15 p.m. Tuesday.

Police say the injuries of the two victims didn’t appear to be life-threatening.

As officers were heading to the store, they saw a vehicle matching the suspect vehicle heading toward them.

The news release says they turned around to follow and eventually found it crashed with two men dead inside. Officials say it isn’t immediately clear if the men were the shooting suspects.
