FWC Law Enforcement Report
October 27, 2015
The Florida FWC Division of Law Enforcement reported the following activity during the weekly period ending October 23 in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties.
SANTA ROSA COUNTY
Officer Hutchinson was patrolling an area when he observed a truck parked against a tree line with only its tail lights on. He pulled behind the vehicle and observed a male subject sitting in the vehicle. He observed the subject look back athim and then turn and lean over towards the passenger floorboard area.
Officer Hutchinson walked to the driver side door of the vehicle and observed the subject place an object inside the waist band in the front of his shorts. The subject then tried to exit the vehicle after Officer Hutchinson gave him commands to stay in the vehicle. The subject ignored the officer’s commands and exited the vehicle and then threw a small pouch into the bed of the truck. Officer Hutchinson handcuffed the subject and located a small nylon case that contained methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia.
Officer Lewis arrived on scene and assisted Officer Hutchinson in searching the vehicle.
During the search, the officers discovered more drug paraphernalia and equipment used to manufacture methamphetamine. The officers contacted the Santa Rosa Sheriff’s Office who impounded the truck. The suspect was booked into the Santa Rosa County Jail for possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia.
The following day, the Sheriff’s Office obtained a search warrant for the vehicle. While searching the vehicle, they observed an active meth lab inside of one of the bags in the bed area of the vehicle along with other drug paraphernalia.
