1 killed, suspect dead in suspected 'targeted incident' at business complex: Sheriff
Based on preliminary information, "we believe this is a targeted incident," Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister said on social media.
A targeted incident at a Citibank office complex in Tampa resulted in one fatality and the suspect's death, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office. The active threat was reported on Wednesday, prompting a significant law enforcement response with heavily armed deputies and armored vehicles. The sheriff's office has confirmed that the incident is being treated as targeted, although the nature of the threat has not been disclosed.
The victim and suspect both succumbed to their injuries, and authorities are currently clearing the building. Citibank employees have been directed to a reunification site in a nearby Sheraton parking lot. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives is expected to join the investigation at the scene. This developing story will be updated as more information becomes available.
