The Citrus County Sheriff’s Office 911 Center received a call at 5:47 a.m. Monday morning regarding a domestic issue in the Citrus Springs neighborhood.

Details are sketchy at this point, however, when deputies responded to the area, a pursuit followed with the suspect vehicle traveling at speeds in excess of 100 mph at times.

Multiple shots were fired by the suspect at deputies during the pursuit, which crossed county lines at C.R. 484.  During the conflict, the suspect was shot and killed.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement will be investigating the shooting itself and is en route to the scene.

I understand why they do the inspections and I love the fact that they tell us where they will be.

The Patrol has found these checkpoints to be an effective means of enforcing the equipment and driver license laws of Florida while ensuring the protection of all motorists.

What I don’t get is why they announce them when, you can avoid them.?  So becareful and drive safe.
