Newly released body camera footage captures the chaotic moments as Hillsborough County deputies rushed into a Citibank campus in Tampa, Florida, during a deadly shooting Wednesday, searching for the gunman before an officer announced, “Shooter is down.”
The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office released edited bodycam footage and 911 calls showing the law enforcement response to the shooting at the Sabal Center in Tampa, where a woman was killed, and the gunman was fatally shot by an armed security guard.
According to authorities, the suspect drove through a fence at the Sabal Park Office Development, crashed into an outdoor seating area and fatally shot a woman before opening fire inside the building’s cafeteria.
In the footage, a deputy is heard asking bystanders for a description of the suspect as officers arrive at the sprawling business campus.

The newly released 911 audio captures a caller reporting gunfire at Citibank as authorities coordinate their response, including plans to enter the building.
