Officials: 4 people dead, 2 deputies injured in shootings
By MITCH STACY – 49 minutes ago

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Four people were killed and two sheriff's deputies were seriously wounded in two separate, but related shootings Saturday morning, authorities said.

The events unfolded when three people were shot on the back porch of a residence in the Carrollwood area in the north Tampa suburbs at around 9:25 a.m., said J.D. Callaway, spokesman for the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office.

The man who shot them — Jorge Orlando Bello Garcia — then drove away in his red Ford pickup truck, only to be confronted by deputies at a busy intersection about 1 1/2 miles away, authorities said. Garcia, the estranged husband of one of the victims, then wounded two deputies and fought with one of them before he was killed by a third deputy, Callaway said.

3. Ain't that the truth!
Prior to the passage of the new gun laws, nobody EVER got shot in Florida, especially not police officers!
