ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — Of the five people killed during a workplace shooting at Fiamme was remembered as an avid pool player by his friends.
Robert Snyder worked at a manager at the RV awning company and was one of the people gunned down Monday morning by John Neumann Jr. at the business on Forsyth Road near Hanging Moss Road, deputies said. Eight people were able to get out of the business.

Friends told Channel 9’s Janine Reyes that Synder would stop by an area pool hall every day to blow off steam after work.
Will Harper told Eyewitness News that when he heard about the shooting, he tried to call his friend, but never got an answer. He just held onto hope that his friend survived.
