MADEIRA BEACH (FOX 13) -
A man in Madeira Beach has been charged with attempted
murder after deputies say he tried to suffocate his girlfriend with duct tape.
Brandon Lagodny is accused of holding his girlfriend down
and wrapping tape around her head and mouth so she couldn't breathe.
He apparently had been planning the attack for quite some
time, deputies said. The woman survived the ordeal.
Lagodny was arrested and taken to Pinellas County jail,
where he's being held without bond.
