Tampa, FL (July 21, 2018) – Negligent security accidents happen all the time across Florida, taking many lives when somebody commits a shooting in an area where you believe you were protected, such as a business. This was the case for one man who lost his life on Friday.
Police say that a man was killed in a McDonald’s shooting in the parking lot of a Tampa restaurant on Friday night. They were called to the McDonald’s at Dale Mabry Highway and El Prado Boulevard around 7:45 p.m. last night.
When they arrived, officers found that 20-year-old Nicholas Mortazavi had received a gunshot wound to the chest. He was rushed to the Tampa General Hospital in critical condition.
This morning around 3:30 a.m., Mortazavi was pronounced dead from his severe injuries.
No arrests have been made in connection to the shooting. Detectives are still working on questioning those involved.
