BRANDON, Fla. (Gray News) - When deputies arrived at an apartment in Hillsborough County Tuesday night, Kaynesha Rhodes was already being restrained by someone.

Before they got there, investigators say Rhodes held two people at gunpoint, hit one with a baseball bat and bit off part of a child’s finger, the Tampa Bay Times reported.

Almost immediately after deputies took her into custody, the unthinkable happened. Suddenly, she fell ill.

They rushed her to a hospital where doctors pronounced her dead. Rhodes was just 24 years old.

Her cause of death has not been determined. The county’s medical examiner will decide if a prior medical condition led to Rhodes’ untimely death.

Authorities said the ordeal began when Rhodes showed up to an apartment she used to live in and pointed a firearm at her former roommates.

After she locked the door, investigators said she put down the gun, picked up the bat and began swinging. The bat hit one of the roommates in the head, after which a fight broke out.

During the brawl, Rhodes reportedly bit off part of a child’s finger. Deputies arrived around 11 p.m. to find her already restrained.

Had she lived, they would’ve charged her with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, aggravated assault with a firearm and false imprisonment.

... the unthinkable happened.

Nope. I think Divine Providence will smite them down every time they do something like that.

“Her cause of death has not been determined.”

Who cares...as long it happened.

Yeah, I gave up biting kids' fingers off. They stick their hands in everything!

Really?
I mean, really.
Yeah, the ends justifies whatever means when you bite a kids finger off.
My kid, and she would have been shot dead.

Just say she committed suicide in jail. The matter will soon be dropped by the media...as they did with Epstein.

I am sure a lot of people have thought about that happening to her.

Not in the least unthinkable if you’re high on bath salts or pcp.

With a name like "Kaynesha Rhodes," you can guess where she lies on the hotness scale. For starters, imagine a ginormous bubble butt.

“The bat hit one of the roommates in the head, after which a fight broke out.”

I’m pretty sure the fight started when she picked up the bat.

I suppose they could have thought she was trying out for a part in the remake of Field of Dreams.
