Alexander Marcel Proctor, 26, was in critical but stable condition at Orlando Regional Medical Center after an Orlando Police officer shot him on John Young Parkway on Thursday afternoon.
According to an arrest affidavit, a man at the Wal-Mart Supercenter on West Princeton Street called 911 at about 4 p.m., saying a man shot him with "a gun-like object" in the chest and arm. After he was shot, he realized that the weapon appeared to be a BB gun.
Responding police officers found Proctor on the 2300 block of North John Young Parkway. Witnesses and police said that when one of the officers arrived and got out of his car, Proctor pointed what appeared to be a black-colored firearm at the officer and began shooting. The officer shot back.
Police Chief John Mina, in a news conference Thursday, said two people were shot by the BB gun and had minor injuries.
Proctor has been charged with aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer.
The Wal-Mart store is the same store where Orlando Police Lt. Debra Clayton was shot last month.
