Preliminary investigation suggested that Jamarian Bradfield and the woman, who were acquainted with each other, reportedly got into an argument before the shooting.<\/p>\n

TAMPA, Fla. \u2014 A 19-year-old was arrested in connection with a fatal shooting in Tampa on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Officers with the Tampa Police Department<\/a> responded to the shooting on Brittany Lane just after 12:30 p.m. After arriving, they reportedly found a woman in her mid-30s with a gunshot to the upper body.<\/p>\n

Despite lifesaving measures, police say she died from her injuries.<\/p>\n

Investigators say they identified Jamarian Bradfield as the suspect in the shooting following evidence and witness statements.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to Tampa police, preliminary investigation suggested that Bradfield and the woman, who were “acquainted with each other,” got into an argument immediately before the shooting. Bradfield reportedly pointed a gun at the woman and threatened to shoot her before the actual shooting happened.<\/p>\n

Police say Bradfield was driving a 2015 Mercedes sedan, and after scouring the area, they found him at a nearby apartment complex on N 22nd St., where he was armed and detained. The Mercedes was impounded and officers seized the gun as evidence.<\/p>\n

Bradfield was taken to Orient Road Jail and is now charged with murder, according to the police department.<\/p>\n

“The swift apprehension of this armed individual is a direct result of the relentless work of our officers and investigators,” Chief Lee Bercaw said in a statement.\u00a0“We hope this quick arrest brings a sense of justice to the victim\u2019s family as they navigate this senseless tragedy.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Preliminary investigation suggested that Jamarian Bradfield and the woman, who were acquainted with each other, reportedly got into…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23164,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[135,137,136],"class_list":["post-153957","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tampa","tag-tampa","tag-tampa-headlines","tag-tampa-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153957","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=153957"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153957\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23164"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=153957"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=153957"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=153957"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
