ORANGE PARK, Fla. – The Clay County Sheriff’s Office said authorities on Wednesday night were sent to investigate a deadly shooting that involved deputies.
“The call started in the town of Orange Park. Our deputies got involved, at some point during the call ended up in a pursuit over here to Blanding and Fillmore where a deputy-involved shooting occurred,” Clay County Sheriff Michelle Cook said.
The person shot died of their injuries, Cook said.
The shooting happened just outside a Wawa gas station as residents looked on. Cook said there was no threat to the community and that several deputies were involved, but no deputies were injured.
A dashcam video sent to News4JAX by a viewer appears to show the end of the pursuit. A car can be seen losing control after a deputy performs a PIT maneuver.
It can’t clearly be seen what happens next, but multiple gunshots are heard while the people who recorded the video try to take cover.
