TAMPA, Fla. — A Tampa Police officer has been fired following a use of force incident captured on body camera video, WFLA reported.
Dukagjin Maxhuni’s firing stemmed from a February 2026 incident where he deployed a TASER while detaining a man.
The man had fled from officers in a vehicle after they attempted to initiate a traffic stop.
On the fourth activation, the shock took effect, sending the man to the ground, where another officer placed him in handcuffs.
The police department stated that Maxhuni failed to reassess the situation or give the man adequate time to comply with his instructions before deploying the TASER.
