A man is in custody after officials say he attacked and shot a door-to-door salesman multiple times, leaving him hospitalized.<\/p>\n
It happened in the Providence Townhomes community in Brandon Wednesday night. Hillsborough County deputies were called to the scene around 8 p.m. for reports of a shooting.<\/p>\n
Several gunshots can be heard on doorbell camera footage from a neighboring home, followed by people screaming.<\/p>\n
When deputies arrived on scene, they found the victim with multiple gunshot wounds to his lower body. Deputies learned the victim and a female coworker were working in the area, going to door-to-door selling telecommunication products.<\/p>\n
That’s when the suspect, Reginald McGee, 38, reportedly became verbally aggressive towards the female worker. The two workers began walking away when McGee physically attacked them, deputies say.<\/p>\n
During the attack, officials say McGee reached into his waistband and pulled out a firearm. McGee reportedly shot at the victim as he ran away, continuing to fire shots until he ran out of ammunition.<\/p>\n
Body camera footage shows the moment the victim was found sitting at the front door of a residence. McGee had returned to his home. When deputies arrived, he exited with a firearm and was taken into custody.<\/p>\n
The victim was taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, officials say.<\/p>\n
The sheriff’s office said McGee remains in custody and is charged with attempted second-degree murder, aggravated battery and discharging a firearm on residential property.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hillsborough County deputies said the suspect shot at the salesman until he ran out of ammunition.
