Florence Villa Grove Road/Hwy 27 Area: Criminal Mischief
Nov 3, 2020
Media Contact : Brian Bruchey, PIO
Media Contact : Brian Bruchey, PIO
This man committed an act of Criminal Mischief, and now the Polk County Sheriff's Office is trying to identify him.
Even if we were to give him the benefit of the doubt, that there was an emergency, and he desperately needed to enter the Tuscan Hills neighborhood (off of Florence Villa Grove Road near Hwy 27 ) in Davenport...he didn't bother to notify anyone of the damage he caused.
The man not only damaged the gate arm, he also caused damages to the arm motor...and those things aren't cheap.
A deputy did manage to get fingerprints from the arm, but the results have not come back yet and may not reveal who are suspect is.
Do you recognize this man or his car? If you do, or if you have some other information that would be helpful to this investigation, please contact Deputy Adcock (reference case #20-42534) at 863-236-3900.
