Deputies Release Description Of Hudson Shooting Suspect
According to a Tuesday alert from the Pasco Sheriff's Office, the shooting occurred around 12:45 a.m. in the 13300 block of U.S. 19. Everett has a warrant alleging attempted aggravated battery with serious injury, the agency said.
Everett is described as about 5 feet 8 inches tall and 140 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Deputies said he was last seen wearing a black durag and a gray hoodie, but the alert did not provide additional details about the shooting, the victim’s condition or whether Everett had been arrested.
What The Warrant Allegation Means
Florida’s aggravated-battery statute covers conduct that intentionally or knowingly causes great bodily harm, permanent disability or permanent disfigurement, as well as battery committed with a deadly weapon, and classifies the offense as a second-degree felony. The legal description in the sheriff’s alert is an allegation tied to a warrant, not a finding of guilt; the agency did not release the underlying probable-cause details. Florida law provides the statutory definition.
How To Share Information With Deputies
Anyone who knows where Everett may be should submit information through the Pasco Sheriff’s online tip portal. The agency also lists its non-emergency line at 727-847-8102, option 7, for information about his whereabouts.
