ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) – Authorities say two teens are dead following a shooting outside a home near Orlando.

Orange County Sheriff’s officials say the shooting happened late Thursday in the Pine Hills neighborhood.

News outlets are reporting that deputies found the bodies of teens, ages 16 and 18, on the front lawn of the home.

Witnesses told deputies they saw a dark-colored car leaving the scene after the shooting.

No further details were immediately available.

Their deaths follow a deadly week in Orlando. Last Friday night, “The Voice” singer Christina Grimmie was fatally shot after a show in Orlando. Early Sunday, a gunman killed 49 people inside a gay nightclub and on Tuesday evening an alligator killed a 2-year-old boy at a Walt Disney World resort.
