Third person arrested, charged with murder after deadly Hillsborough home invasion

Detectives arrested Ashley Causey, 32, in Clay County on Sunday morning.

Three people have been arrested and charged with murder for their parts in a home invasion robbery during which a co-conspirator was killed, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office said.

On May 31, Vincent Benitez, 20, Taylor Pritt, 20, Ashley Causey, 32, and Michael Caddo, 25, tried to rob a home in the 12000 block of Morris Bridge Road in northeast Hillsborough. The owner used a revolver to defend himself and fatally shot Caddo, deputies said.

Since Caddo was killed during a felony act that the other suspects helped plan, they are being charged in his death, the sheriff's office said.

Benitez and Pritt were arrested Saturday and are charged with 2nd-degree murder with a firearm and robbery/home invasion with a firearm.

Clay County Sheriff's deputies arrested Causey Sunday morning. She's also being charged with second-degree murder with a firearm and robbery/home invasion with a firearm.
