Video shows man firing shots at another man, deputies searching for shooter: HCSO
TAMPA - The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office is searching for a man seen on video firing shots at a second man standing just feet away.
According to the sheriff's office, deputies responded on Monday afternoon to the Tico and Marisol Supermarket and Café Artemisa, just north of Tampa International Airport.
Video released by HCSO on Tuesday shows the suspect and victim walking around a parked car off Knollwood Street, blocks from the supermarket, as the gunman opened fire at close range. The victim was not hit.
"There is never an excuse to turn a verbal argument into something that violent like that video that we saw. That is scary," said Carolina Montelongo with the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office. "This suspect didn’t care about the victim's life or that it was 2 p.m., or that there were people walking, there were people driving their cars… This suspect didn't think about the consequences of his actions. And let's be very clear, we are going to find him, and he's going to know what he did and the consequences of his actions."
Investigators say the shooter is wanted on several charges, including attempted murder and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
Anyone who recognizes the suspect is asked to call the sheriff's office at 813-247-8200.
