Patrick Douglas Scruggs allegedly used a pocket knife to stab another motorist on the Howard Frankland Bridge, the span linking Tampa and St. Petersburg.
Scruggs was an assistant U.S. attorney in the criminal division in Tampa from Sept. 9, 2012, to April 21 earlier this year, a United States Attorney's Office spokesperson said.
The incident started when a Tampa man, a 35-year-old called "Driver 1," was found slumped over in his car in a southbound lane of the Howard Frankland Bridge a little before 9:30 a.m. ET on Tuesday, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. "Driver 1 reversed and attempted to drive around Driver 2's vehicle" and then"collided with Driver 3's vehicle which was passing the incident," according to the FHP.
When Driver 2 and his wife tried to intervene, Scruggs allegedly"diverted his attention" to them and tried to stab the couple, officials said.
