I WAS ADVISED THAT THE INDIVIDUAL WAS YELLING OBSCENITIES AT MOTOR VEHICLE TRAFFIC AND CAUSING VEHICLES TO STOP AND OR SWERVE TO PREVENT HITTING THE DEFENDANT. UPON ARRIVAL IN THE AREA, I OBSERVED THE DEFENDANT, MR MICHAEL MCBRIDE, STANDING NEXT TO THE STREET SIGN AT THAT LOCATION WITH HIS BICYCLE LEANING AGAINST THE STREET SIGN. WHEN I MADE CONTAC WITH THE DEFENDANT, I OBSERVED HIM TO BE BLEEDING FROM HIS LEFT EYE. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE NEEDED EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES (EMS) WHICH HE REFUSED. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE HAD ANY IDENTIFICATION. THE DEFENDANT THEN HANDED ME A BLACK TRI-FOLD WALLET AND ADVISED THAT "IT'S IN THERE". I ASKED HIM IF HE HAD A DRIVER'S LICENSE OR IDENTIFICATION CARD, HE ADVISED THAT HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE WAS SUSPENDED AND THAT HE HAD AN IDENTIFICATION CARD. WHILE LOOKING FOR HIS IDENTIFICATION CARD, I LOCATED A FLORIDA DRIVER'S LICENSE, NUMBER M216541590600. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT WHY HE STILL HAD THE DRIVER'S LICENSE IN HIS POSSESSION AND THE DEFENDANT STATED THAT "HE DID NOTHING WRONG". I ASKED THE DEFENDANT HOW HE HAD HURT HIS EYE AND HE ADVISED THAT HE HAD FALLEN DOWN ON THE ROAD. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT WHEN HE FELL ON THE ROAD DID HE CURSE AT THE PASSING TRAFFIC AND HE ADVISED NO.

THE DEFENDANT ADVISED THAT HIS BROTHER OWNED "MACK ONE SIGNS" AND THAT HE USED TO BE THE DIRECTOR OF A CHURCH AND A MINISTRY. WHILE ON SCENE, I MADE CONTACT WITH THE COMPLAINANT WHO ADVISED THAT WHILE HE WAS GETTING READY TO LIE DOWN, HE HEARD THE DEFENDANT CURSING AND SCREAMING AT PASSING VEHICLES. WHEN THE COMPLAINANT EXITED HIS RESIDENCE; HE OBSERVED THE DEFENDANT STANDING IN THE ROADWAY WHILE OTHER VEHICLES WERE HAVING TO SWERVE TO GO AROUND HIM.
