Deputies said they found two tents in a park near a Lithia school, and that those tents contained guns, ammunition and the materials used to make methamphetamine.
According to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, deputies were investigating a complaint about people living in a closed park near Pinecrest Elementary School on Thursday when they discovered the tents shortly before 10 a.m.
The tents contained ammunition, a loaded rifle, an unloaded rifle, a loaded handgun and several products used to make meth, deputies said. The deputies removed the firearms and set up surveillance.
At 11:35 p.m., Trinity Shane Tucker, 37, drove up in a pickup truck with Michelle Kolvinsky, 47, in the passenger seat, and the pair walked into the tents, deputies said.
When Tucker and Kolvinsky came back out, they were greeted by deputies.
Tucker was arrested and taken to Orient Road Jail on multiple drugs and weapons charges. In addition, deputies said he had a concealed loaded weapon and methamphetamine on him at the time of the arrest.
Kolvinsky was trespassed from the property.
Deputies said they believe Tucker was living on the property for anywhere from four to six weeks.
