- Florida, USA -
The Tampa Police Department arrested 43-year-old JASON CHRISTOPHER LARSON (pictured).
On the early evening of March 23, 2025, officers responded to the 700 block of W. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard for a report of a fire in the parking lot. Witnesses reported seeing a male, later identified as LARSON, starting the fire in the parking lot.
Officers found a dead dog after putting out the flames. LARSON fled the area before police arrived.
Approximately half an hour later, Tampa Police responded to a call reporting a single car traffic crash on the Courtney Campbell Causeway. Upon arrival, officers found an empty car and LARSON standing on a ledge along the causeway making statements that he had killed a dog.
Police said that after more than two hours, LARSON was taken into protective custody and transported to Orient Road Jail on animal cruelty charges.
Police tell me the dog was a Pug but no additional details were released and the investigation remains active.
I took the liberty of naming the Voiceless Victim Honey for the tribute image. Should his/her given name be made public, I will rectify it accordingly.

He Makes Me Sick! Disgusting! He Should Never Be Out Ever Again.
What the hell is wrong with these humans? Another innocent life taken because they are unchecked by relatives, friends, authorities etc! Rest now Honey, you were failed in your life, for that my heart breaks. I pray this monster never experiences life outside of prison, he doesn’t even deserve oxygen.
