LAUDERDALE LAKES, Fla. -- Gunmen shot and killed a security guard at a Lauderdale Lakes adult gaming center Saturday, police say.

Police believe the gunmen targeted Kurt Orlosky.

Kurt Orlosky, 38, was working at the Oasis when two armed, masked men stormed in and opened fire on him, police say. Orlosky died at the scene.

Investigators believe the guard was specifically targeted. They have not said why.

Orlosky was also reportedly the manager of a gun shop a few doors down from the Oasis.

The suspects escaped in an older model, 1990s maroon, four-door Cadillac, according to police.

If you have any information that could help investigators, call Broward County Crimestoppers at (954) 493-TIPS.
