🚨𝐑𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐑𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭🚨 On March 6, 2025, at approximately 10 a.m., two vehicles were involved in a road rage incident. When both vehicles stopped at the red light of South US Highway 41 and West College Avenue in Ruskin, the driver of the white van, Leonard Cako, 47, approached the victim's vehicle with an aluminum baseball bat. Cako reached into the victim's car and began to strike and grab him. The victim defended himself by firing a flare gun. The flare hit Cako, who began to strike the car with the bat. Cako was identified as the primary aggressor and arrested and charged with: ▪Burglary of Conveyance With Assault or Battery ▪Aggravated Assault Victim Over 65 ▪Criminal Mischief Over $1000 "This is another example of how quickly road rage can escalate. There's no excuse for a driver to get out of their car and assault and threaten another driver," said Sheriff Chad Chronister. "I'm glad we were able to make sure this suspect will suffer the consequences of his actions."

The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office has arrested two Hillsborough County Public Schools bus employees following a child abuse investigation. On November 14, 2025, deputies began investigating after a witness reported a bus aide, Juanita Wright, 79, striking a 10 year old student on a school bus parked at Caminiti Exceptional School. The child is diagnosed with Autism and ADHD and is minimally verbal. Detectives reviewed video footage showing the bus aide repeatedly abusing the child on multiple days while the bus driver, Tonya Rice-Constant, laughed during the abuse. On January 26, 2026, Wright and Rice-Constant were arrested. “This case goes far beyond abuse. It reveals a level of cruelty that is deeply disturbing,” said Sheriff Chad Chronister. “A defenseless child was physically abused by someone entrusted with their care, while another adult failed to intervene and instead laughed. It is an inexcusable betrayal of trust and a profound lack of humanity when adults who are supposed to protect a child not only inflict harm, but also allow it to happen. In Hillsborough County, this kind of conduct will be met with the full force of the law.” More:
