Zephyrhills Carjacking Suspect Taken Into Custody
Here’s an update from the Pasco County Sheriff’s Office. They have FOUND their suspect, 36 year old Luis Tull. Many Q105 listeners in the Dade City area last night let us know about a text they got asking them to stay inside as they looked for this guy. Tull was found this morning and taken into custody. PCSO will give updates at noon today at a press conference. A Q105 listener has shared that she drove by the scene and heard gunfire near Fort King Rd & Sunshine Rd in Zephyrhills.
Suspect Luis Tull has been detained. Thank you to all who shared. Sheriff Nocco will provide an update on the case at noon, which will be live streamed.

Original story from October 16:
Several local Tampa TV stations are reporting tonight that there was an attempted carjacking at the McDonald’s located at 34367 SR 54 in Zephyrhills. One person is said to have suffered a gunshot wound. No word yet either if an arrest has been made. All we know at this point is it happened earlier tonight sometime before 8PM.
Here are a series of tweets from Fox 13 reporter Evan Axelbank with some new information…
Call came in at 7:54PM. Pasco SO says one victim was shot during an attempted carjacking. That car was not taken. Then, a second person was actually carjacked, but not injured. So, deputies looking for a vehicle and a person right now. Waiting for descriptions.
