A suspect has been taken into custody and charged with first degree murder for fatally shooting and running over a police officer in Tarpon Springs. The incident comes after a gunman killed two officers in NYC after issuing threats against police.
The suspect, identified as 23-year-old transient, Marco Antonio Parilla Jr. shot and killed veteran officer Charles Kondek early Sunday morning near the coastal town’s Sponge Docks, local media reports. The 45-year-old father of five had been on the force for 18 years.
After shooting the officer, the suspect fled the crime scene in a white Hyundai sedan, before crashing into a pole, where he was arrested. Several city blocks around the crime scene were cordoned off Sunday morning as investigators collected evidence.
During a press conference on Sunday afternoon, Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri said Parilla had a trail of criminal activities with almost 30 felony arrests, and 15 misdemeanor arrests.
