Club Security Stops Masked Shooter in Tampa, Florida (Security Camera Footage)

Security camera shows Tampa FL club security stopping masked shooter.


This brief security feed from March 2023 shows a potential shooter attempting to make entry into a Tampa club, where he is intercepted and detained by club security. The subject enters from the bottom of the field of view at six seconds, appearing to bear a flashlight in his left hand and a handgun in his right. He is also wearing a devil mask. At 10 seconds, the security officer to the right of the video (face unobscured) stops the gunman and attempts to pull the gun away. As the two exchange blows, the subject drops the handgun at 14 seconds. The security guard and the subject continue to fight off-camera. At 25 seconds, he is charged by the subject, but the subject is thrown to the ground as the guard appears to fire two rounds. 30 seconds into the footage, the shooter is detained by the two security guards and one bystander (face obscured). As this incident was captured by security camera, there is no audio provided.
