Police arrested a Florida man accused of shooting a family sleeping in their car earlier this week, leaving a pregnant woman injured, the Tampa Police Department announced Saturday.
Police arrested Christopher Stamat Jr., 21, Saturday in connection with the Oct. 5 shooting, in which he allegedly shot at a homeless family of five sleeping in their car at around 4:30 a.m. Stamat allegedly shot the mother in the head, leaving her with non-life threatening injuries, according to police.
Stamat faces six felony charges for the incident, including four counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, one count of second degree attempted murder and one count of shooting into a vehicle, police said, adding that he is being held without bond.
Tampa Police Chief Mary O’Connor said in a news conference on Sunday morning that police arrested Stamat earlier in the day on Saturday for felony marijuana possession. After making bond for that arrest, Stamat was released, O’Connor said. Police arrested him again later that afternoon after making the case for the shooting charge, O’Connor added.
