IT STARTED WITH A DEPUTY
WORRIED ABOUT A DRIVER AND
ENDED UP WHEN THIS WOMAN
ALLEGEDLY SHOT THE DEPUTY'S GUN
WHILE IT WAS IN HIS HOLSTER.
EYEWITNESSES TELL US WHAT IT
TOOK TO FINALLY ARRESTER.
I FEEL BAD FOR THAT GUY.
THAT SEMINOLE COUNTY DEPUTY
SAID HE HAD NO IDEA SHE WITH
HIGH ON DRUGS WHEN HE FIRST
APPROACHED HER CAR.
SHE GRABBED HIS GUN AND PULLED
THE TRIGGER.
LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HURT.
THE SUSPECT WENT BEFORE THE
JUDGE IS AFTERNOON AND DEPUTY
SAY THEY'VE HAD SEVERAL RUN-INS
WITH HER IN THE PAST.
Reporter: THAT'S RIGHT
MARTHA.
THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THAT
DANIELLE TRUDELL HAS BEEN HERE
AT THE SEMINOLE COUNTY GEL.
-- JAIL. SHE TOLD OFFICERS
SHE'S AN ADDICT AND DOESN'T
REMEMBER ANYTHING.
SHE WENT BEFORE THE JUDGE
TODAY.
SHE WAS HIGH ON DRUGS WHEN SHE
RESISTED ADDRESSED AND GRABBED
THE DEPUTY'S GUN SHOOTING OFF A
ROUND IN THE PARKING LOT NEAR
434 AND MARKHAM WOODS WEDNESDAY
MORNING.
KYLE HENDRICKS TOOK THESE
PICTURES OF THE ACTION OUTSIDE
OF HIS OFFICE.
THEY FIRST HEARD SIRENS
OUTSIDE.
I HEARD ALMOST IMMEDIATELY A
POP AND THEN WE SAID, THAT'S A
GUNSHOT.
DEPUTIES HAD INITIALLY
RESPONDED TO AN ACCIDENT AND
WHEN THEY MOVED THE CAR
SOMETHING WILL THEY NOTICE THE
WOMAN WAS SLUMPED OVER THE
WHEEL IN HER CAR IN THE PARKING
LOT.
THE DEPUTY SAYS HE NOTICED
SHE WAS UNDER THE INFLUENCE AND
SHE REFUSED ORDERS REPEATEDLY.
THE OFFICER JUMPED IN THE CAR
TO KEEP THE CAR FROM GOING DOWN
THE HILL AND HITTING OTHER
CARS.
HE EVENTUALLY GOT THE CAR UNDER
CONTROL AND GRABBED HER.
HE GOT HER IN A BEAR HUG AND
THEN SHE GOT HER HAND ON HIS
HOLSTER AND IS ABLE TO FIRE ONE
ROUND INTO THE GROUND FROM HIS
HOLSTER .
Reporter: DEPUTY CUMINGS
THEN HEARD HIS FIREARM
DISCHARGE AND FELT THE HEAT ON
HIS BODY.
AFTER THAT SHE TOOK OFF
RUNNING.
THEN I SAW HER GETTING
TACKLED WHEN SHE WAS TRYING TO
GET AWAY.
IT WAS SCARY.
IN HER CAR THEY FOUND BAGS OF
FENTANYL IN HER PURSE.
IT TOOK SEVERAL DEPUTIES TO GET
HER UNDER CONTROL.
SOME OF THESE PEOPLE ON THESE
POWERFUL DRUGS CAN DO THINGS
