Florida man who fired 8 gunshots at deputy during traffic stop arrested after days on the run

Ma'at Lee, 20, of Tampa, was arrested Tuesday after firing eight gunshots at a Hillsborough County Sheriff's deputy who pulled him over on suspicion of driving a stolen vehicle on Sunday, authorities said.

Lee’s gunfire struck the deputy’s patrol vehicle multiple times, authorities said. The sheriff’s office shared photos of the patrol vehicle’s bullet-riddled windshield.

Rodriguez, 29, was not injured during the incident and was able to return fire as the suspect fled. The suspect’s vehicle, a silver Jeep Grand Cherokee that deputies say was stolen days earlier, was recovered nearby the scene.
