[WARNING: violent content]

The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office has arrested 23 juveniles and 6 adults following a violent disturbance in Brandon.

On May 18, 2024, a crowd of 400-500 individuals created chaos in the parking lot of Astro Skate in Brandon, by fighting, causing damage to nearby businesses, stealing, and disrupting normal business operations.

Despite deputies issuing multiple warnings instructing the crowd to leave as they were trespassing, the crowd refused to comply and continued to cause havoc, leading to their arrest.

"I am outraged by the violent and disruptive behavior that targeted hard-working people and businesses, creating chaos in our community. Let me make this unequivocally clear: this violent and detrimental behavior will never, under any circumstances, be tolerated in Hillsborough County," said Sheriff Chad Chronister. "When responding to a scene as hectic as this, our deputies must account for potential danger from any direction. As you can see in the horrifying footage, these individuals had no regard for safety, and that's where our deputies stepped in to defuse the situation professionally and swiftly.
