Investigators are still attempting to determine who shot and killed a man on Monday at a crosswalk in New Tampa.
A man who works nearby stated, “Once we realize it’s gunfire, you don’t just run out to see what’s going on because bullets don’t have a name on them.”
For the majority of people in New Tampa, the day started out normally, but it soon descended into anarchy.
According to the witness, “They were attempting to do CPR, but everybody came from everywhere. Everywhere there was someone that wasn’t afraid. They came out and you could tell people were concerned.”
Near Regents Park Drive and Bruce B. Downs Boulevard, a busy intersection that was cordoned off with crime scene tape, a white Mercedes with yellow evidence markers was discovered.

There are still many people in New Tampa who are astonished by the shooting’s time and location.
“In the middle of the day, like three in the afternoon, we just start hearing shots fired. We hear tires spinning and come outside to find that someone had lost their life, unfortunately,” as per a witness.
