| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: HESSE, BRYAN 0755 (AR14-10405) (14-68037) 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 051714 AT APPROXIMATELY 2230 HOURS, WHILE PARKED AT THE END OF HOMOSASSA TRAIL NEAR THE TRACTOR SUPPLY STORE, I OBSERVED A SILVER VEHICLE OCCUPIED BY TWO MALES DRIVING SLOWLY IN MY DIRECTION. THE VEHICLE PULLED UP TO APPROXIMATELY 20 FEET IN FRONT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND MADE A U-TURN TO HEAD BACK EAST TOWARDS HIGHWAY 19. AT THAT TIME, I NOTICED THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS TO THE VEHICLE WERE NOT OPERABLE. I THEN ACTIVATED MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP AT THE CORNER OF HOMOSASSA TRAIL AND HIGHWAY 19. UPON APPROACHING THE VEHICLE, I MADE CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER/DEFENDANT, MR CHRISTOPHER ALEXANDER, WHO STATED HE IS IN CITRUS COUNTY ON VACATION AND IS STAYING AT AN UNKNOWN CAMPGROUND ON HALLS RIVER ROAD. HE STATED HE AND HIS FRIEND HAD JUST DRIVEN TO THE RACTRAC GAS STATION TO GET A PACK OF CIGARETTES AND THAT HE TURNED DOWN HOMOSASSA TRAIL BY ACCIDENT. I ASKED MR ALEXANDER TO PRODUCE HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE AT WHICH TIME HE ADVISED ME HE DID NOT HAVE A VALID DRIVER'S LICENSE BUT INSTEAD PROVIDED ME WITH A PENNSYLVANIA IDENTIFICATION CARD. BOTH MR ALEXANDER AND THE PASSENGER WERE ASKED TO EXIT THE VEHICLE AT WHICH TIME MR ALEXANDER WAS PLACED IN HANDCUFFS (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND HIS BACK AND PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR DRIVING WITHOUT A VALID DRIVER'S LICENSE. BECAUSE THE VEHICLE DID NOT BELONG TO THE DEFENDANT OR THE PASSENGER, A ROTATION WRECKER FOR THE CITRUS COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE WAS CONTACTED AT WHICH TIME ADAMâS TOWING RESPONDED TO THE SCENE TO TOW THE VEHICLE. MR ALEXANDER WAS PLACED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE DEFENDANTâS BOND WAS SET AT $150.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. THE DEFENDANT WAS ISSUED UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION NUMBER A1278FP FOR DRIVING WITHOUT A VALID DRIVER'S LICENSE. |
