CRIME: CRIMINAL MISCHIEF
CRIME SCENE: CAMP MACK ROAD AREA OF LAKE WALES
POLK COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE CASE #25-18375
A gate was damaged on property in the Camp Mack Road area of Lake Wales on May 3rd, at around 2:35 am.
As you can see in THIS VIDEO, four people on four-wheelers pulled up to the gate, and one of the people broke the gate mechanism by forcing it open.
As Sheriff Grady Judd might say, we may have four suspects, or we might have one suspect and three witnesses. If none of them comes forward, that would mean they are in it together, and all four would have to go to jail together.
If you have any information about this case or you recognize this suspect, please contact Detective Ferguson at 863-678-4115 or email HFerguson@polksheriff.org.
