Scenes outside the WWE Performance Center resemble those from a movie as tons of police cars surround the property after a man was shot by a Sheriff deputy earlier today.
During a press conference on site held by Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings, he said that a 29 year old Hispanic male by the name of Armando, who was fixated on one of the female wrestlers, refused to back down after officers gave him the order. Instead, he charged at them with a knife and he was fired upon. The Sheriff added that they have encountered the same man three times over the last few weeks. The WWE Performance security cameras captured the shooting.
The same individual came to the Performance Center two weeks ago with a chain threatening the employees of the state-of-the-art facility and WWE got a restraining order on him however he was back again today.
WWE employees at the Performance Center were also questioned by the police.
