TAMPA, Fla. — Tampa police have arrested the suspect who shot and killed a man on a bench on Tuesday.
Police said at approximately 7:25 p.m., police responded to reports of shots fired in the 300 block of N. Nebraska Ave. and Floribraska Ave.
The shooter, later identified as David Lee Fogg Jr., was described as wearing a hoodie and still shooting in the area.
When officers arrived, they found a man dead lying on a bench. The man had gunshot wounds to his face.
Multiple witnesses remained on-scene and provided statements regarding the shooting.
Following the shooting of the victim, two people followed Fogg as he fled the area. During his flight, Fogg fired several rounds at the two people who feared for their life.
