'Completely tragic': Mother charged with murder after tossing 4-year-old daughter into Florida river, cops say

Shakayla Denson, authorities say, first stole a car from a local auto shop and then drove to the water with her daughter.

After parking, "witnesses say she waded into the Hillsborough River with her child," Tampa police said in a news release.

She made it about halfway across the water, then "tossed" the child and retreated to the street, the release said. ​

At the base of the Columbus Drive Bridge is Columbus Court Apartments. Some there said they saw the woman run from the Discount Food III convenience store a block away from the apartments, into the apartment complex.

Eddie Camacho, 48, owns Yenel Auto Painting next to the store.

He said he saw a woman run up Fremont Avenue wearing only a bra and black pants and no shoes. It was raining. From the window, he watched her run across the street and into the parking lot. She began checking the handles on the car doors parked outside.

He went out to ask what she was doing and then she ran into the store and into the back storage area.

Osama Jamil, 37, was busy helping customers at the counter, but he investigated.

"It was weird," Jamil said. "She was back there, washing her face. She was counting out loud, 19, 20, 21. I went back there to see if she was all right. She didn’t look right."

There's another thread. It probably needs the title reworked, since it has now been reported she waded into the river with the child.
