Thursday, Dec. 5
Thief just needs to cool it
4:03 p.m. First Block of President Lane. Burglary.
A deputy responded to a home on President Lane after a resident said someone had broken into his parents’ home and stolen a refrigerator and a Nintendo Wii console.
The man said he’d been there Wednesday night at about 6:30 p.m. — his parents were out of the country — and came back the next day at about 8:45 a.m. Thursday morning. He didn’t see anything amiss, but his brother had arrived later and noticed the missing fridge, and his nephew noticed the missing Wii.
The deputy walked around the house but didn’t notice any pry marks, missing screens or unlocked windows. Nothing else in the house was disturbed.
Never get between a mama and her cubs
9:34 p.m. First block of Kingswood Drive. Disturbance.
A woman called deputies from a gas station, saying a man had a knife and was chasing her around her car with it.
Deputies arrived and stopped the man — who was drunk and yelling “that (expletive) pulled a knife on me! I want her arrested!” — and spoke with the woman.
She said she’d pulled into the gas station and was filling up her tank when the man approached and asked her for change. She said she didn’t have any. He asked again, and again, and again, and then he started yelling obscenities.
The woman went inside to pay for her gas, leaving her teen son in the car, and told the clerk there was a man outside harassing customers.
When she came out of the store, she said, the man yelled at her son “to get out and fight him like a man,” according to the case report.
The man started to walk toward the car, and the woman got between him and her son. The man screamed at her to get out of his way. She tried to get in the car and leave, but he began punching the passenger side window of the car.
The woman walked back around the car with a pocket knife and told the man to leave her son alone.
He backed away from the car, and deputies arrived when the woman got in her car to leave. The clerk saw the encounter and gave a statement, and deputies will review surveillance video of the event once a manager is available to retrieve it.
The man yelled sexist and anti-gay slurs and obscenities at deputies and told them they were “in for it.” He was taken to Florida Hospital Flagler for medical clearance and then turned over to the Flagler County jail.
