Video captured the moment authorities tackled and arrested former Boston Red Sox pitcher Austin Maddox during an undercover child predator sting in Florida.

The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office (JSO) released the footage on Tuesday, which shows multiple law enforcement officers take down the six-foot-four former athlete after he arrived at a home in an alleged attempt to meet an underage girl.
