Barefoot Tampa Duo Caught On Camera In An Extreme Road Rage Incident
I was just talking about road rage in Tampa on my show last week. According to a new study, “the scent of peppermint can reduce aggressive driving behaviors.” So if you have road rage, try buying a little tree air freshener. The tree air freshener smells like peppermint. Breathing in that in may calm you down.
With that being said, maybe the people in this video should have a little tree air freshener in their car. According to the Florida Highway Patrol, a man and a woman were involved in a minor crash with a Brandon woman. The accident happened at the intersection of US-301 and Martin Luther King Boulevard.
Police say the duo then got out of their car and began attacking the woman’s car with their bare hands and feet. Police are currently looking for the couple. If you have any information call *FHP (*347) or Crime Stoppers at **TIPS.

Which Florida City Made The List With Highest Murder Rates In U.S.
There’s lots to love about the Sunshine State, but we’re also notorious for the craziest crimes. One Florida city even ranked in the top 15 for highest murder rates in America. It’s not really a list we love to see Florida on, but we can’t say we’re not surprised with all the insane stuff that happens here.
Our friends at neighboorhoodscout.com ranked the top 30 cities in the country with the highest murder rates per 1,000 residents. They condensed their research by including cities with 25,000 or more people. They collected their data by the number of murders reported to the FBI to have occurred in each city, and the population of each city. The city population data comes straight from the US Bureau of the Census at the time of each analysis. For instance, the 2022 list population uses 2020 population figures. The 2021 list uses 2019 figures, and so forth.
There were 14 new cities making the list this year. “The newcomer on this list with the highest murder rate is Saginaw, MI. The number of murders in Saginaw more than doubled from the previous year.” Thankfully (and surprisingly) only one Florida city was ranked in the research.
Here’s the top 15 cities with the highest murder rate. Click here to see the full list.
