| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: CALLAHAN, CRAIG 0643 (AR09110863) DID UNLAWFULLY, WILLFULLY AND MALICIOUSLY INJURE OR DAMAGE CERTAIN PROPERTY OF THE CITRUS COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE (CCSO), TO WIT: A PATROL VEHICLE, SAID DAMAGE BEING OF A VALUE OF $1,000.00 OR MORE, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 806.13(1)(B)(3). DID 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. DID UNLAWFULLY RESIST, OBSTRUCT OR OPPOSE DEPUTY CALLAHAN, WHO WAS THEN AND THERE IN THE LAWFUL EXECUTION OF A LEGAL DUTY, OR EXECUTION OF LEGAL PROCESS, TO WIT: ATTEMPTING TO SECURE THE DEFENDANT, WITHOUT OFFERING OR DOING VIOLENCE TO THE PERSON OF SUCH OFFICER, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 843.02. ON 090609 AT APPROXIMATELY 0200 HOURS, MYSELF AND OTHER DEPUTIES WITH THE CCSO WERE STANDING OUTSIDE ROC'S 491 BAR LOCATED AT 3891 NORTH LECANTO HIGHWAY IN BEVERLY HILLS IN REFERENCE TO CONDUCTING A SECURITY CHECK WHILE PATRONS EXITED THE BAR AND PARKING LOT AREA. WHILE CONDUCTING THE SECURITY CHECK , I OBSERVED WHAT SEEMED TO BE A VERBAL ALTERCATION OCCURRING BETWEEN MULTIPLE SUBJECTS IN THE REAR SOUTHEAST CORNER OF ROC'S 491 PARKING LOT. MYSELF AND OTHER DEPUTIES WALKED OVER TO THE CROWD THAT WAS NOW ASSEMBLING TOGETHER AND YELLING BACK AND FORTH AT EACH OTHER AND CAUSING A DISTURBANCE BY USING PROFANITIES AND OTHER FIGHTING TYPE WORDS. I ADVISED THE SUBJECTS INVOLVED IN THE INCIDENT TO GET INTO THEIR VEHICLES AND LEAVE THE PROPERTY. UPON DOING SO, I HEARD A BLACK MALE, WHO WAS LATER IDENTIFIED AS THE DEFENDANT MR MARIO WILLIAMS, CUSSING AND STATING "FUCK YOU" AND BECOMING INCREASINGLY AGGRESSIVE TOWARD MYSELF AND OTHER DEPUTIES ON SCENE. UPON WALKING TOWARD THE DEFENDANT, HE WAS ADVISED TO LEAVE THE PARKING LOT AND TO STOP MAKING A DISTURBANCE, AT WHICH TIME, HE DIRECTED HIS ATTENTION TO DEPUTY SANTIAGO AND IN AN AGGRESSIVE MANNER AND WHILE FLAILING HIS ARMS STARTED SCREAMING AT HIM "DON'T CALL ME FUCKING BRO" MULTIPLE TIMES. WHILE DEALING WITH THE DEFENDANT, THE CROWD WAS NOW CIRCLING AROUND US DUE TO THE DEFENDANT'S ROWDY BEHAVIOR AND MAKING OTHER SUBJECTS WHO WERE ON SCENE BECOME INCREASINGLY AGGRESSIVE TOWARD MYSELF AND OTHER DEPUTIES. AT THIS TIME, THE DEFENDANT WAS STANDING NEXT TO A VEHICLE IN THE PARKING LOT. THE DEFENDANT SCREAMED TOWARD DEPUTY SANTIAGO AND THIS DEPUTY "FUCK YOU I HAVE BEEN ARRESTED FOR BATTERY ON A LEO AND DON'T CARE IF I GO BACK FOR THE SAME SHIT". AT THAT TIME, I FELT INTIMIDATED AND THREATENED BY THE DEFENDANT'S THREATS AND THE BODY LANGUAGE HE WAS USING TOWARD US. MYSELF AND DEPUTY SANTIAGO ADVISED THE DEFENDANT TO COME OVER TO US, AT WHICH TIME, HE IGNORED OUR COMMAND AND PROCEEDED TO GET INTO THE REAR SIDE DOOR OF THE VEHICLE HE WAS STANDING BY. AT THAT TIME, MYSELF AND DEPUTY SANTIAGO WALKED OVER TO THE VEHICLE. UPON MAKING CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT, I COULD SMELL AN EXTREMELY STRONG ODOR OF AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE EMITTING FROM HIS BREATH. I THEN PULLED HIM FROM THE BACKSEAT, ADVISED HIM HE WAS BEING PLACED UNDER ARREST, AND HANDCUFFED HIM (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND THE BACK. UPON WALKING THE DEFENDANT TO THE NEAREST PATROL VEHICLE, WHICH WAS APPROXIMATELY 100 YARDS AWAY, THE DEFENDANT CONTINUED TO BE AGGRESSIVE AND USED PROFANITIES AND PULLED AWAY FROM THIS DEPUTY ATTEMPTING TO MAKE ME PULL HIM AS I WALKED TO MY PATROL VEHICLE. UPON BRINGING THE DEFENDANT TO THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE TRUNK AREA OF DEPUTY WEBB'S PATROL VEHICLE, I ASKED HIM TO BEND OVER THE TRUNK SO I COULD PAT HIM DOWN FOR WEAPONS. THE DEFENDANT BEGAN TO TENSE HIS MUSCLES AND REFUSED TO OBEY MY COMMANDS AND CONTINUED TO ATTEMPT TO TURN AROUND AND FACE ME. UPON ATTEMPTING TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE DEFENDANT, I PUSHED HIM AGAINST THE REAR OF THE PATROL VEHICLE. HE BECAME IRATE AND SLAMMED HIS HEAD THREE TIMES ON THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE TRUNK AREA OF DEPUTY WEBB'S PATROL VEHICLE (CAR NUMBER 5840) LEAVING THREE LARGE DENTS ON THE TRUNK AREA. AT THAT TIME, I GRABBED THE DEFENDANT BY HIS ARM AND ATTEMPTED TO PLACE HIM IN THE REAR SEAT OF THE PATROL VEHICLE AND HE REFUSED TO GET INSIDE WHILE PUSHING WITH HIS LEG OFF THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. UPON ATTEMPTING TO PUSH THE DEFENDANT INTO THE VEHICLE, HE AGAIN SLAMMED HIS HEAD OFF THE TOP PORTION OF THE DOOR. AFTER A SHORT STRUGGLE, I WAS ABLE TO PLACE THE DEFENDANT IN THE REAR SEAT OF THE PATROL VEHICLE. THE DEFENDANT WAS TRANSPORTED BY DEPUTY WEBB TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY. UPON ARRIVAL, THE DEFENDANT'S BOND WAS SET AT $1,650 PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. A SUPERVISOR WAS CONTACTED IN REFERENCE TO THE DAMAGE DONE TO THE PATROL VEHICLE AND DEPUTY STRICKLAND WAS CONTACTED IN REFERENCE TO TAKING PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE DAMAGE TO THE TRUNK OF THE PATROL VEHICLE. *NOT-EXEMPT* |
