A man accused in the shooting of a woman during an Atlantic City home invasion has been arrested in Florida.
Officers responding to the home found a 22-year-old woman was shot during the robbery, Lt. Kevin Fair said.
Her injury was not life-threatening.
Ortiz, who lives in Orlando, Fla., was arrested last week on unrelated charges, Fair said.

In Atlantic County, Ortiz is charged with robbery, burglary, three counts of aggravated assault, unlawful possession of a weapon, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, theft and conspiracy.
He is in the Orange County jail awaiting extradition to Atlantic County.
The second man has not yet been arrested or publicly named.
The investigation is ongoing.
