-Hillsborough County, FL. -June 15, 2024. Support us using **Super Thanks** next to the **share** button. Donate to us through Patreon! https://patreon.com/PoliceBodycamVideos? Police bodycam footage appears to show a gunfight between a 19-year-old alleged shooter and deputies Saturday night in Florida. Christos Alexander Themelis Jr. allegedly engaged in a shootout with deputies after killing his parents inside their home, according to a press release from the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office. An HCSO release said that at 11:09 p.m. Saturday, deputies responded to a home on Cactus Wren Place in Tampa after a woman called for help, saying her husband had been shot. However while the caller was on the phone with the dispatcher, several more shots were heard on the phone. When deputies arrived, they found the shooter, 19-year-old Christos Alexander, and his mother outside the home. The sheriff’s office said the suspect then shot his mother in the back of the head and fired his gun at the law enforcement officers, injuring Deputy Shane McGough, 26. Five deputies returned fire at the suspect, hitting Alexander and knocking him to the ground. However, he then crawled back inside the home and barricaded himself inside, Chronister said. The HCSO SWAT team, crisis negotiators, and a robot arrived on scene to help enter the home. Deputies used their robot to enter the home through the front door. “Unfortunately, the first person we encounter on the ground is the father,” the sheriff said. “The father had succumbed to his injuries.” The SWAT Team then entered the home, finding Alexander dead from his injuries in another room. According to Chronister, Alexander lived with his parents. Deputies were called to the home 10 times before the deadly shooting, mostly for mental health service and violence against his parents. The sheriff said there was also an active risk protection order against Alexander that led to deputies seizing his guns. Investigators are working to find out how he obtained the gun used to kill his parents. “How did this mentally ill subject have access to any type of firearms when we took his firearms” the sheriff said. “They’re in our custody. How did he have access to any type of firearms to be able to inflict this type of violence this evening?” McGough was hospitalized at St. Joseph’s Hospital and is expected to make a full recovery in three months after his leg surgery, officials said. “Deputy McGough is in good spirits and with his family,” Chronister said.
