The Pasco Sheriff’s Office is currently investigating an overnight shooting that occurred in the U.S. 19 area of Bayonet Point, Florida. Deputies responded to the scene around 12:45 a.m. on Sunday, August 2, after receiving reports of gunfire.

The victim was transported to a local hospital for medical treatment, though his current condition has not been released to the public. Witnesses reported that the incident took place at the Set Back Bar, but law enforcement has not officially confirmed this location or provided an address due to Marsy’s Law protections. The suspect fled the scene on foot before deputies arrived and remains at large as investigators continue their search efforts.
