Adam Simjee and his girlfriend, Mikayla Paulus, both students at the University of Central Florida, were driving along a road when they were "flagged down" by a woman, later identified as Yasmine Hider, who "asked the couple if they could give her some assistance to help get her car started," FOX 35 Orlando reports.
When the couple attempted to assist Hider, she produced a gun and made the couple walk back into the woods for an attempted robbery, a Clay County Sheriff's office release says.
At some point, after Hider walked them at gunpoint
into the woods, Simjee produced a handgun that was concealed on his
person. There was an exchange of gunfire, during which the suspect was
shot multiple times. Simjee was struck by gunfire as well and died at
the scene. Paulus was not injured in the gunfire exchange and was able
to call for help, as well as tell investigators about a second suspect
who was watching nearby during the incident.
