Man charged with attempted murder after attacking a deputy

ORANGE PARK, Fla. -- The man accused of attacking at a Clay County deputy is out of the hospital, and in jail.

26-year-old Nicolas Cannady is charged with attempted murder.

In December deputies responded to a call of a man acting suicidal at an Orange Park apartment complex.

Investigators say Cannady approached an officer with a gun and the deputy fired three shots at Cannady.

Cannady was taken to Orange Park Community Hospital for treatment.  He was released Saturday and booked into the Clay County Jail.
