A Brevard County deputy shot and wounded a construction worker outside a shopping mall.
Sheriff Wayne Ivey said at a news conference Tuesday that the construction worker was doing work outside the mall when he started behaving erratically.
The man’s boss confronted him, and the worker left, only to return a short time later.
Ivey said a security guard approached the worker, who became aggressive, and deputies were called to the mall.
Ivey said the construction worker started swinging a metal fence post at a deputy, who then fired multiple times, striking the worker.
The man was airlifted to a nearby hospital, where he was being treated.
