Deputies Shot During Warrant Raid | Tampa News

In a tense early morning raid in Hernando County, Florida, deputies were executing a drug warrant when suspect Anthony Cusati allegedly opened fire as officers breached the door—wounding two officers, one in the arm and another critically in the leg and chest. Law enforcement held their fire to avoid harming potential innocent bystanders, and both deputies are expected to recover. Cusati, now in custody, faces multiple serious charges including attempted murder of a law enforcement officer, aggravated battery, firearm possession as a felon, and resisting arrest—with more narcotics-related charges likely to follow. Authorities urge anyone with information to come forward anonymously for a reward. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
