Authorities said 3,200 workers were on campus as the gunman crashed a car, opened fire and was killed by a security guard.
- On Wednesday, a gunman killed a woman at a Tampa-area Citibank office complex before a security guard fatally shot him; the suspect had driven a sedan into an outdoor seating area before opening fire.
- Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister stated on social media that, based on preliminary information, "we believe this is a targeted incident," while investigators are "still working" to determine if the suspect and victim knew each other.
- Roughly 3,200 employees were on campus during the attack, which prompted a massive law enforcement response; Hillsborough County Chief Deputy Frank Losat said four others sustained non-life-threatening injuries.
- The crime scene is "very large," Losat said, and processing will continue into Thursday; authorities have cleared all complex buildings and are conducting interviews with employees.
- Losat commended the security guard who "stopped the threat," noting there was "potential" for further violence; the suspect's identification remains pending as the investigation continues.
