HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) – A Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office deputy is back at work after being hit in the back of his neck with a brick while monitoring protests at University Square Mall.
According to the HCSO Facebook page, Deputy William Scobie was one of two deputies injured during May 30’s protests. The other deputy, who was hit by a firework, is also recovering well.
