The incident occurred on April 11, when deputies responded to a residence on SW 49th Place in Ocala in an attempt to locate 28-year-old Mike Struble.
The video shows the deputies locating Struble, who then fled on foot through the rear door of the house.
K-9 units were called in to assist after deputies temporarily lost sight of the suspect. K-9 Gunner tracked Struble’s scent to a shed on SW 47th Street, where deputies heard movement and ordered the individual inside to come out.
