TAMPA, Fla. — The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office said a suspect was arrested after hitting an HCSO deputy with his vehicle while attempting to evade arrest.
On Jan. 24, around 1:07 p.m., deputies arrived at an RV park on Williams Road in Tampa to find the suspect, Logan Williams, 27, who was allegedly involved in an aggravated battery incident.

HCSO said Williams fled the scene on foot but was arrested quickly after.
The deputy in the patrol car, Deputy Stevie Hackett, and an HCSO civilian employee who was riding along with the deputy were both taken to Tampa General Hospital and are being treated for their injuries.
