A violent incident unfolded early Thursday morning in Wesley Chapel when a bail bondsman was shot and two deputies sustained minor injuries during a standoff at The Enclave apartments. The situation began after deputies received reports of a shooting involving 29-year-old Henry Josena, who had been arrested for failing to appear on lewd and lascivious charges. When deputies entered the apartment to rescue a second victim, Josena fired multiple shots at officers from another room, causing shrapnel injuries to two deputies behind their tactical shield. Deputies maintained their positions while attempting verbal contact with the second victim, who confirmed they were unharmed. Josena was found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound after authorities deployed a drone into the room where he was located. The bail bondsman was transported to a hospital and is expected to survive, while both deputies received treatment for their minor injuries at the scene.
