The victim of a downtown Orlando shooting is recovering this afternoon.

The shooting occurred around 3 a.m. on Garland Ave., shortly after the victim left Club Element on Pine Street. Police believe a confrontation between the victim and four other men began early Tuesday morning at the bar.

Police say that while the victim and a passenger were traveling north on Garland Ave. near Concord St., two cars pulled up and blocked the victim's vehicle. Multiple shots were fired out of one of the suspect cars.

The victim was shot in the head and transported to Orlando Regional Medical Center. His injury is not life-threatening and he is cooporating with detectives.

Police say the victim was followed from the club and probably boxed in just south of Colonial. Passenger in the victims car shot back in self-defense. No word on whether anything will happen to him but police have his gun. Two cars fled when passenger shot back but only description police gave us is they're a Silver car and a Blue car.
