Man Indicted for First Degree Murder After Shooting Woman and Leaving Baby to Die in Car

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. – On Wednesday (May 22), an Orange County grand jury formally indicted Doujon Griffiths, 24, for First Degree Murder (with a Firearm), First Degree Murder, Attempted First Degree Murder (with a Firearm) and three counts of Shooting at, within, or into a Building.

Just after 5 a.m. on September 7, 2021, Griffiths shot and killed a woman in a vehicle after shooting and injuring a man. Griffiths left the woman’s baby in the vehicle without calling for help. The vehicle was discovered two days later with the one-year-old child dead inside.

The State presented sufficient evidence to a grand jury to secure indictments against Griffiths for First Degree Murder (with a Firearm), First Degree Murder, Attempted First Degree Murder with a Firearm and three counts of Shooting At, Within, or Into a Building.

Please check the Orange County Clerk of Court’s website for the latest updates on court hearings.

We are unable to provide additional information about the case at this time.

An indictment is merely an allegation, and all defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
