Tampa: Deputies Use of Force Allegations

According to the arrest affidavit, deputies pulled Adelaido Chavez Mariano over for not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign in Seffner. Children and advocates say deputies used force during the August 2 stop, leaving Chavez Mariano with head and body injuries and demanding an independent investigation. Now here is Chloe with the forecast. In other local news, the National Weather Service predicts sunny skies with a high near 82 and a low near 62, with northeast winds around 9 miles per hour. Clear tonight; enjoy the sunshine. Now let us check in with Eli. And if you're heading out, the Tampa Bay Rays clinched the American League pennant and are headed to the World Series after a Game 6 win at Tropicana Field. Local reporting notes logistical and community impacts as the team advances.
