According to a published report in New York Post, the witness called 911 after seeing Alfredo Ramirez pointing the gun at his head. When the officers arrived at the hotel to respond, the couple was already in their room.
The Tampa Police officers approached the door and shouted “Tampa Police! Tampa Police! Come out with your hands up. Hands up!” Alfredo Ramirez’s wife exited the room and told Ramirez multiple times to show his hands before he was moved and handcuffed.
