| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: HUNTER, JEFFREY 0441 (12-56049) AR439 THE DEFENDANT, MR ANGEL SOFIA HERNANDEZ, DID DRIVE A MOTOR VEHICLE UPON A HIGHWAY IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA WITHOUT HAVING A VALID DRIVER'S LICENSE AUTHORIZING HIM TO DO SO, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE NUMBER 322.03(1). ON 032412 AT APPROXIMATELY 1312 HOURS, I WAS FACING SOUTH ON US HWY 41, AT THE INTERSECTION OF EAST HIGHLANDS BOULEVARD. IN THE LEFT TURN LANE WAS A GREEN CHEVROLET SUBURBAN, AND WAS FIRST IN LINE FOR THE LIGHT. THE LIGHT TURNED TO A GREEN LIGHT, AND DESPITE THE FACT THAT THERE WAS NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC, THE VEHICLE DID NOT COMPLETE ITS TURN FOR APPROXIMATELY 20 SECONDS. AT THAT POINT I NOTICED THAT THE TAG ON THE VEHICLE WAS OBSCURED DUE TO A LICENSE PLATE HOLDER, WHICH HAD BEEN MOUNTED ON THE VEHICLE UPSIDE DOWN, AND MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE WHAT STATE THAT TAG WAS ISSUED FROM. I PERFORMED A TRAFFIC STOP ON THE VEHICLE AND STOPPED IN THE PARKING LOT OF THE WIN DIXIE. I THEN MADE CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER, WHO IDENTIFIED HIMSELF AS MR ANGEL SOFIA HERNANDEZ. MR HERNANDEZ DID NOT SPEAK ANY ENGLISH, BUT HIS ACQUAINTANCE, MR LEOANARDO LEAL-ESPINOZA, TRANSLATED. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT MR HERNANDEZ HAD NO FLORIDA DRIVERâS LICENSE. HE STATED THAT HE HAD A MEXICAN DRIVERâS LICENSE WHICH HAD BEEN STOLEN WHILE HE WAS WORKING IN PLANT CITY, AS WELL AS ALL OF HIS OTHER FORMS OF IDENTIFICATION. MR HERNANDEZ WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A DRIVERâS LICENSE NUMBER FOR HIS MEXICAN DRIVERâS LICENSE . I THEN RAN MR HERNANDEZâS NAME AND DATE OF BIRTH THROUGH FCIC/NCIC, WHICH PROVIDED NO RESULTS. AT THAT TIME I PLACED MR HERNANDEZ UNDER ARREST FOR DRIVING WITHOUT A VALID DRIVERâS LICENSE. MR HERNANDEZ RELEASED THE VEHICLE TO HIS ACQUAINTANCE, AND WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY, HANDCUFFED, DOUBLE LOCKED BEHIND HIS BACK, IN THE BACK OF MY PATROL CAR. BOND WAS SET AT $150.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. |
