Citibank office shooter targeted company over a $2,500 debt collection, Florida sheriff says

A gunman killed a woman before being fatally shot by a security guard at Citibank's office complex in Tampa, Florida.

A Hillsborough County sheriff said the shooter targeted the campus because he was angry over a $2,500 debt collection.

The shooter, 35-year-old Jacob Pearson, called an attorney affiliated with Citibank about three hours before the shooting, threatening violence if a court hearing over the debt wasn't canceled.

Pearson drove from his home in Orlando to Tampa, about 90 miles away.
