A shooting in the Robles Park Public Housing Complex on Thursday has left one man fighting for his life, the mother of two children jailed without bond, and a third man sought by police.
According to Tampa Police, shortly before 3 p.m., Thursday, 22-year-old Dontavious Clark allegedly became engaged in an argument with Darnell Keyon Ammons, 21, while in the 400 block of E. Selma Street. Ms. Shamiria Hardrick, 22, was pushing her two children, ages 1 and 3, in the stroller and walking with Ammons.
At some point during the argument, Ms. Hardrick allegedly handed Ammons a handgun. Ammons allegedly shot Clark more than one time in the upper body and both he and Ms. Hardrick fled the scene.
Clark ran to a nearby apartment and was transported to a local hospital. He was listed in critical condition following surgery, police said.
Following the shooting, police conducted a search of an apartment in the 200 block of Moore Street, but failed to locate either suspect. The Tactical Response Team and the Hostage Negotiators also responded to the scene.
Later in the evening, police located Ms. Hardrick and transported her to police headquarters. Following an interview, Ms. Hardrick was arrested and charged with attempted first-degree murder, child neglect, and carrying a concealed firearm. She is being held without bond.
A warrant has been issued for Ammons for attempted first-degree murder and using a firearm in the commission of a felony, police said.
Police are asking anyone with information pertaining to the whereabouts of Ammons to call (813) 231-6130, or Crime Stoppers.
