A LONG STORY
4600 block of Turkey Creek Rd.
Aggravated assault waiver / recovered firearm: An officer responded to the listed location in reference to a disturbance, meeting with two individuals who stated that they were involved in a verbal altercation that escalated into a physical confrontation with two other individuals — all employees at the same company. One mentioned that the initial incident occurred at a local gas station, which falls under the jurisdiction of Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office. HCSO arrived and began conducting their investigation when it was learned that after the first altercation, another began with the same group once they returned to work. It was advised that handguns were pulled out during this altercation as well, with two of the individuals brandishing firearms and one claiming that he was struck in the head by a firearm. The responding officer found no visible injuries or marks during the investigation. The officer requested to inspect the firearms in question and completed an FCIC/NCIC check which showed one of the guns to be legally owned by one individual who had a valid Concealed Carry License, and another firearm that was reported stolen in 2020 out of Pasco County — which was confirmed. The firearm was seized for evidence and removed from the FCIC/NCIC database but no charges were filed for the stolen firearm due to time-lapse. At the completion of the investigation, it was determined that all parties involved did not want to prosecute and waivers of prosecution were signed.
