New images were released of the shooting that left Tank Dell and nine other people injured

New images have emerged of the shooting that left Houston Texans receiver Tank Dell and nine other people injured in Florida.

The incident occurred at Cabana Live in Sanford and began when a fight broke out in the crowd. Moments later, gunman Christopher Bouie Jr., 16, opened fire as partygoers ran toward the exit.

The Seminole County Sheriff’s Office shared security images from the scene showing how the events occurred. As the fight escalated, Bouie fired the first shots as the crowd dispersed.

Another person responded from across the room before a brave security guard tackled Bouie to the ground. The second individual has not yet been identified.

Sheriff Dennis Lemma said Dell, nor any of the other victims, suffered any life-threatening injuries in the incident. He also highlighted the heroism of the site’s security guard.

“The heroic actions of this security officer took a very dangerous situation and made it less significant than it could have been,” Lemma said. “He tackled this guy from behind and knocked him to the ground.”

“We are incredibly fortunate that no one was killed and no one else was injured.”

Bouie was charged with attempted murder, possession of a firearm by a minor, use and display of a firearm during a felony and discharging a weapon on public property, according to his arrest report.

Authorities hope to speak with the unidentified gunman, whose actions may have been justified under Florida self-defense laws.
