Fugitives Accused Of Shooting At Cops Found Hiding In Treasure Island

Author Geno

If you were driving through Treasure Island last night and were wondering what all the commotion was with the police activity, here’s what we know. Channel 8 reports that two armed fugitives who police think shot at cops in North Carolina were caught. The incident happened last week. During a pull over, a truck pulled away and a high speed chase ensued. During the chase, they say shots were fired by an AR-15 at deputies. Fortunately no one was hit.

At some point, authorities found out they might be hiding here in Tampa Bay at one of the suspect’s ex-girlfriend’s apartment.

A SWAT team was called in and they ended up using tear gas and a blast to get the job done. Fortunately no members of law enforcement got hurt and both suspects are now off the street and behind bars.
