DAVENPORT, Fla. - Video released Monday shows the moment an alleged suspect began shooting at two Florida deputies as they responded to a family disturbance in Davenport, hitting one in the chest.

The Polk County Sheriff's Office said the deputy was saved by the bulletproof vest he was wearing.

Authorities said Gabriel Batista, 41, of Orlando, is facing several charges including attempted first-degree murder of law enforcement officers.

According to the sheriff's office, Deputy Nicole Lyons and Deputy Harodis "Tony" Nunez responded to a home in the Tanglewood Preserve subdivision Wednesday, Oct. 13, shortly after 10 p.m. for the family disturbance. Authorities said the disturbance had started over the phone and deputies later learned that Batista informed one of the residents not to call law enforcement, or it wouldn't end well.
