A gunman has rammed his car through a security fence at a Citibank corporate campus in Florida and fatally shot a female employee before being gunned down by an armed security guard. The attack left four others injured and triggered a massive police response involving hundreds of officers.
The attack unfolded around noon on Wednesday at the Citibank Center in Brandon, near Tampa, where more than 3,200 people were working at the time, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.
The suspect drove a sedan over several road medians and grassy areas before smashing through a secured fence and crashing into an outdoor dining area where employees were having lunch, according to videos from the scene.
He then emerged from the wrecked vehicle carrying an AR-15-style rifle, approached a woman sitting outside and shot her dead, authorities said.
The attacker subsequently entered the building’s cafeteria, where an armed Citibank security guard confronted him. The two exchanged gunfire, and the guard shot the suspect, who was rushed to Tampa General Hospital and pronounced dead at 1:12pm.
