Bodycam shows a suspect being tased on the ground and shot a Hillsborough County deputy
On April 14, 2024, just before 10 a.m., HCSO deputies were patrolling the Beacon Meadows Park area. During that time, they encountered a suspect that had been trespassed from the park the day before.
Deputies asked him to leave, and for more than 20 minutes, deputies tried to de-escalate the situation, but the suspect refused to comply with the commands, putting his hand in and out of his coat's pockets.
Deputies asked the suspect several times if he was armed, but the suspect said he was not.
Deputies deployed their tasers, and while the suspect was on the ground, he shot three times, hitting one deputy.
Thankfully, the deputy is not critically injured and was transported to the hospital.
"Today's situation could have ended in tragedy. Thankfully, our deputy narrowly escaped serious injury despite the careless actions of this suspect," said Sheriff Chad Chronister. "Not only was the deputy's life endangered today, but the lives of those around him were also at risk."
When Carpenter was arrested, deputies found a firearm and a knife in his coat.
Anthony Carpenter is facing the following charges:
Attempted First-Degree Murder of a Law Enforcement Officer with a Firearm (x3)
Resisting an Officer with Violence
Armed Trespass
"I am furious that someone would endanger the lives of our deputies, especially at a park on a Sunday morning where families gather and children play," said Sheriff Chad Chronister. "I am immensely proud of the swift and brave response of our deputies in handling this dangerous situation."
