A Largo man was arrested by Pinellas County Sheriffs on charges of violation of probation, domestic aggravated assault, fleeing and being a felon in possession of a gun among other charges. Charlie McDuffy has served time for manslaughter and allegedly violated his probation stemming from that conviction when he shot at his father following an altercation.
McDuffy is on probation until January 2011 stemming from an incident in which he and a friend were charged with murder after beating and breaking the neck of Charles Carroll. McDuffy was only 14 at the time. He was found guilty of manslaughter and spent three years in prison. The incident with his father occurred back in February but he was arrested this week after a deputy located his car at the Rainbow Village housing complex.
