Four people have been arrested for several charges including child neglect and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in a Central Florida domestic dispute.
The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office has arrested four suspects after a domestic disagreement involving an infant and the parents.
On February 12th, HCSO’s Communications Center received a call stating that the mother in this incident, 16-year-old Zaniyah Letasia Reed, arrived at a residence in Tampa in the 4800 block of 87th Street in an attempt to retrieve her child from the father, Etreveon Randle. She was accompanied by 29-year-old Keandre Lacey Brooks, 31-year-old Taylor Raven Wildgoose, and 28-year-old Timothy Michah Settles.
The parties involved engaged in a verbal altercation, and Settles and Brooks demanded to take the child at gunpoint.
Detectives safely located the child at a McDonald’s nearly seven miles away at 1:17 p.m.
“This is an innocent child who did not deserve to be subject to this kind of violence over a custody disagreement,” said Hillsborough County Sheriff Chronister. “I’m incredibly thankful for our deputies and detectives who worked efficiently and effectively on this case to ensure the child’s safety. The well-being of our most vulnerable population, our children, is paramount. As your Sheriff, I am committed to protecting our children and keeping them out of harm’s way.”
