| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: FRINK, RON 0116 (AR07005067) DID KNOWINGLY AND UNLAWFULLY IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 806.13(1)(A) DID UNLAWFULLY, WILLFULLY AND MALICIOUSLY INJURE OR DAMAGE CERTAIN PROPERTY OF THE VICTIM, TO WIT: POURING TRANSMISSION FLUID IN TO THE VICTIMS GAS TANK, CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE. ON 091107 AT APPROXIMATELY 1300 HOURS, I CONTACTED THE VICTIM AT WITHLACOOCHEE TECHNICAL INSTITUTE (WTI) IN REFERENCE TO HIS VEHICLE. HE STATED THAT HE HAD BEEN INFORMED THAT A STUDENT AT WTI ADVISED HIM THAT THE DEFENDANT, MR ROBERT DECUIR, DUMPED TRANSMISSION FLUID INTO HIS GAS TANK. UPON CHECKING HIS VEHICLE, I OBSERVED A RED OILY SUBSTANCE, CONSISTENT WITH TRANSMISSION FLUID THAT RAN DOWN FROM THE GAS CAP AREA OF THE VEHICLE. THE VICTIM STATED THAT UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE AND TRYING TO DRIVE IT, THE ENGINE WAS SMOKING AND THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING ROUGH. I SPOKE TO A WITNESS AT WTI, WHO PROVIDED A SWORN WRITTEN STATEMENT ADVISING THAT HE HEARD THE DEFENDANT AND A CO DEFENDANT STATE THAT THEY WERE GOING DAMAGE THE VICTIM'S VEHICLE. I SUBSEQUENTLY CONTACTED ANOTHER WITNESS AT WTI, WHO INDICATED THAT THE DEFENDANT APPROACHED HER AND TOLD THE WITNESS THAT SHE AND THE DEFENDANT HAD JUST POURED TRANSMISSION FLUID INTO THE VICTIM'S VEHICLE AND THEY NEEDED TO LEAVE THE PROPERTY. SHE SUPPLIED A SWORN WRITTEN STATEMENT TO THAT AFFECT. ON 091207, I WAS SUBSEQUENTLY CONTACTED BY THE VICTIM, WHO STATED THAT UPON LEAVING WTI, HE ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE HIS VEHICLE HOME. HE FURTHER STATED THAT IT STALLED, WHICH CAUSED HIM TO HAVE A FRIEND TOW THE VEHICLE HOME. AT THAT POINT, THEY HAD TO REMOVE THE GAS TANK AND CLEAN OUT THE FUEL LINES TO REMOVE ALL OF THE TRANSMISSION FLUID FROM THE VEHICLE. I SUBSEQUENTLY LOCATED THE DEFENDANT AT HIS RESIDENCE. HE INDICATED THAT HE AND THE CO DEFENDANT HAD TALKED ABOUT POURING TRANSMISSION FLUID INTO THE VICTIM'S VEHICLE. THE CO DEFENDANT WALKED OVER TO THE VEHICLE AND STARTED TO POUR FLUID IN TO THE VEHICLE AND WALKED AWAY. THE DEFENDANT THEN WALKED OVER TO THE VICTIM'S VEHICLE AND ALSO POURED SOME INTO IT. THE DEFENDANT WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR CRIMINAL MISCHIEF AND WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING.
