| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: SLINGERLAND, DANIEL 0443 (AR11120471) UNLAWFULLY ENDANGER THE SAFETY OF ANOTHER OR THEIR PROPERTY WHILE INTOXICATED OR DID WHILE INTOXICATED OR DRINKING AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE IN A PUBLIC PLACE CAUSE A PUBLIC DISTURBANCE, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE NUMBER 856.011. ON 042611 AT APPROXIMATELY 1750 HOURS, I RESPONDED TO GIOVANNI'S PIZZA, LOCATED AT 2404 NORTH FLORIDA AVENUE IN HERNANDO, IN REFERENCE TO AN INTOXICATED SUBJECT CAUSING A DISTURBANCE INSIDE THE BAR. UPON ARRIVAL I MADE CONTACT WITH THE COMPLAINANT, THE BARTENDER, WHO ADVISED THAT THE DEFENDANT JOHN ALIX WAS INTOXICATED AND WAS GROPING PATRONS INSIDE THE BAR. SHE ADVISED THAT THE DEFENDANT WAS TOLD TO LEAVE THE BAR. HE WENT OUTSIDE OF THE BAR TO A STORE LOCATED NEXT DOOR, WHERE A WITNESS STATED THAT HE WAS TALKING INCOHERENTLY AND YELLING OBSCENITIES. UPON MAKING CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT, HE WAS SWAYING WHILE HE STOOD, HIS SPEECH WAS SLURRED AND HIS EYES WERE GLASSY AND BLOOD SHOT. THROUGH MY TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE, HE APPEARED TO BE INTOXICATED. I ATTEMPTED TO OBTAIN INFORMATION FROM THE DEFENDANT AS TO WHERE HE HAD BEEN, HOWEVER HE WOULD ONLY STATE THAT HE HAD BEEN COMING TO THAT LOCATION FOR YEARS. THE DEFENDANT COULD NOT COHERENTLY RESPOND TO MY QUESTIONS. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE KNEW WHAT DAY IT WAS AND HE STATED THAT IT WAS EASTER. DUE TO THE BARTENDER'S STATEMENT AND THE DEFENDANT'S ACTIONS, ENDANGERING THE SAFETY OF PERSONS ON A PUBLIC PLACE, HE WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR DISORDERLY INTOXICATION. HE WAS HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND THE BACK, SECURED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY. BOND WAS SET AT $150.00 PER THE BOND SCHEDULE.
