One agent was injured in the gunfire and is expected to be fine.
The agents returned fire, striking one of the suspects who was taken to Osceola Regional Medical Center in critical condition. A second suspect wasn’t injured.
FDLE Special Agent Mark Brutnell says the situation could have been much worse.
“Dealing with some bad people obviously,” Agent Brutnell says. “Narcotics deals are dangerous; we saw that play out today.”
Kissimmee police Chief Jeffrey O’Dell said his department will conduct the shooting investigation for FDLE.
