| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: ROSS, JAMAL 1339 (AR16-18773) (16-37718) DID UNLAWFULLY, WILLFULLY AND MALICIOUSLY INJURE OR DAMAGE CERTAIN PROPERTY OF THE VICTIM, TO WIT: WINDSHIELD OF VEHICLE, SAID DAMAGE BEING OF A VALUE OF $200.00 OR MORE, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATUTE 806.13(1)(B)(2). ON 032016, WHILE ON SCENE WITH DEPUTY ZAREK AS HE WAS CONDUCTING HIS INVESTIGATION, HE LEARNED THAT THE SUSPECT/DEFENDANT, MR LUIS RAMIREZ ENRIQUEZ, HAD FOLLOWED THE VICTIM, MS MARY PARKER'S, VEHICLE WHILE SHE WAS TRAVELING IN HER VEHICLE FROM HER RESIDENCE. UPON COMING TO THE INTERSECTION OF NORTHEAST 3RD STREET AND THREE SISTERS SPRINGS TRAIL, THE DEFENDANT GOT OUT OF HIS VEHICLE, APPROACHED THE VICTIM'S VEHICLE WHILE SHE WAS STOPPED AT THE INTERSECTION AND HIT HER FRONT WINDSHIELD MULTIPLE TIMES WITH A HAMMER. WHILE ON SCENE, THIS DEPUTY AND DEPUTY ZAREK OBSERVED THE VICTIM'S VEHICLE WAS DENTED AND CRACKED WITH THREE DISTINCT IMPACT POINTS. WE ALSO LEARNED THE VICTIM WAS NOT IN HER VEHICLE WHEN THE DEFENDANT VANDALIZED HER VEHICLE AND THE DEFENDANT HAD LEFT THE SCENE PRIOR TO OUR ARRIVAL. I WAS INFORMED BY DEPUTY ZAREK, AFTER CONCLUDING HIS INVESTIGATION, THAT HE HAD PROBABLE CAUSE TO ARREST THE DEFENDANT, MR LUIS RAMIREZ ENRIQUEZ. SEE DEPUTY ZAREK'S NARRATIVE FOR FURTHER. ON 032316, AFTER REPORTING ON DUTY, I READ DEPUTY ZAREK'S REPORT AND CONTINUED TO "BOLO" FOR THE SUSPECT. AT APPROXIMATELY 1941 HOURS, AS I WAS "BOLOING" THE AREA OF 910 NORTHWEST 6TH AVENUE IN CRYSTAL RIVER LOOKING FOR THE DEFENDANT, I OBSERVED THE DEFENDANT STANDING OUTSIDE OF HIS RESIDENCE AT 910 NORTHWEST 6TH AVENUE NEXT TO HIS GREEN IN COLOR DODGE VAN SMOKING A CIGARETTE. I THEN MADE CONTACT WITH DEFENDANT AND ASKED WOULD HE MIND EXPLAINING TO ME WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE INCIDENT BETWEEN HIMSELF AND HIS GIRLFRIEND/VICTIM, MS MARY PARKER, ON 032016. THE DEFENDANT CORROBORATED THE VICTIM'S STORY ABOUT THE INCIDENT AND FURTHER STATED HE WAS MAD BECAUSE HE BELIEVED SHE WAS CHEATING ON HIM AND TEXTING OTHER MEN BEHIND HIS BACK. THE DEFENDANT ADMITTED TO FOLLOWING THE VICTIM IN HIS VEHICLE AND HITTING THE VICTIM'S WINDSHIELD AT THE INTERSECTION OF NORTHEAST 3RD STREET AND THREE SISTERS SPRINGS TRAIL WITH A HAMMER MULTIPLE TIMES. THE DEFENDANT STATED THAT HE WAS SORRY FOR WHAT HE HAD DONE AND IT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. UPON INTERVIEWING THE DEFENDANT, I OBSERVED THE DEFENDANT WAS MISSING HIS TOP TWO FRONT TEETH, MATCHING THE DESCRIPTION OF THE SUSPECT THAT THE WITNESS, MR CODY HALSTEAD, GAVE TO DEPUTY ZAREK. THE DEFENDANT THEN PROVIDED ME A SWORN WRITTEN STATEMENT WRITTEN BY HIS SON, SAMUEL RAMIREZ, AND SIGNED BY THE DEFENDANT DUE TO HIM NOT BEING ABLE TO WRITE IN ENGLISH. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND HIS BACK AND WAS SECURED IN THE REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. HE WAS THEN TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING WHERE HIS BOND WAS SET AT $1,000.00 PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. THE DEFENDANT'S PROPERTY, WHICH CONSISTED OF $11.00 IN U S CURRENCY, HIS CELLULAR TELEPHONE AND HIS WALLET, WERE TURNED IN AT THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY. |
