(<a href=\"http:\/\/www.clickorlando.com\/news\/competency-hearing-set-for-man-shot-by-deputies-at-wwe-center\" target=\"_blank\">ClickOrlando.com Report<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>At a court hearing Thursday in Orlando, a judge ruled that Montalvo has been evaluated by a doctor and is competent. A pre-trial hearing has been set for August 31.<\/p>\n<p>According to the doctor, Montalvo &#8220;has a diagnosis constant with personality disorder&#8221; and the situation intensifies when drugs are involved, disrupting his mood.\u00a0Montalvo&#8217;s\u00a0family says that he suffers from bipolar disorder and other mental illnesses.<\/p>\n<p>Montalvo trespassed at the Performance Center, then charged deputies when they arrived on the scene, prompting one of the officers to shoot at him. Montalvo survived the gunshot wound in the hospital and now stands to face charges related to trespassing and attempting to attack officers.<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p><b>NOVEMBER UPDATE:\u00a0<\/b>Local media in Florida has reported even more details on Armando Montalvo, the &#8220;disturbed&#8221; 29-year-old man who was shot by a police officer outside of the WWE Performance Center earlier this summer.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wftv.com\/news\/news\/local\/interview-suspect-who-was-shot-deputy-outside-wwe-\/npWPx\/\" target=\"_blank\">WFTV Ch. 9 in Orange County, Fla.<\/a> released audio and text transcripts of detectives interviewing Montalvo after he made it through surgery.<\/p>\n<p>Montalvo believed he was filming a reality TV show and was trying to impress\u00a0WWE P.C. employees by banging on the glass door and striking wrestling poses.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2131841993\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThey laugh at me a lot.

As employees commented and chuckled at Montalvo&#8217;s antics, including posing in front of the transparent glass door, police arrived at the scene in the parking lot.<\/p>\n<p>Video shows Montalvo becoming excited as officers arrived. He then became aggressive instead of adhering to instructions to get down on the ground. Video shows Montalvo going into the bushes, reportedly\u00a0to grab rocks. He then aggressively approached the two responding officers\u00a0who, according to the police report,\u00a0were under the impressions that Montalvo had a knife.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2092446690\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>WWE employees can be heard predicting that\u00a0Montalvo is going to be tasered. However, as Montalvo began charging toward the officers, Cpl. Stephen Wahl drew his weapon as he hurriedly retreated in a back-pedal motion.<\/p>\n<p>Cpl. Wahl then shot Montalvo in the chest with a single gunshot from close range. Montalvo was taken to a hospital where he underwent successful surgery.<\/p>\n<p>Montalvo was charged with aggravated assault toward police. Following the surgery, he was released from jail on bond and is scheduled for trial in February.<\/p>\n<p>Montalvo has been ordered to stay away from the Performance Center, but it&#8217;s unclear how that will be enforced until February, especially when he\u00a0appears to have a mental illness.<\/p>\n<p>Montalvo&#8217;s father told News 6 in Orlando that his son suffers from bipolar disorder and is manic depressive.
