| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: REID, JUSTIN 0706 (AR10117941) did, knowing HIS driver's license or driving privilege had been cancelled, suspended or revoked FOR FAILURE TO PAY FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY, drive a motor vehicle upon the highways of this state while such license or privilege was cancelled, in violation of Florida Statute 322.34(10)(a). ON 111610 AT APPROXIMATELY 1141 HOURS, I WAS DISPATCHED TO THE TACO BELL IN CRYSTAL RIVER, IN REFERENCE TO A POSSIBLE INTOXICATED SUBJECT. UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT, MR BRENT HAYES, BY WAY OF CONSENSUAL ENCOUNTER. DURING THE CONSENSUAL ENCOUNTER THE DEFENDANT AGREED TO PROVIDE ME WITH HIS NAME AND DATE OF BIRTH AND NOTHING ELSE. AFTER THIS INFORMATION WAS PROVIDED TO ME, I IMMEDIATELY ENDED THE ENCOUNTER AND RETURNED TO MY PATROL VEHICLE AND DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE DEFENDANT VIA "DAVID" AND NCIC/FCIC. DURING MY RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THE DEFENDANT HAD A SUSPENDED LICENSE AS WELL AS TWO ACTIVE CITRUS COUNTY WARRANTS. AS I WAS DOING THE RESEARCH SERGEANT GRANT (0141) ADVISED THAT THE DEFENDANT WAS NOW AT THE FANCY'S PETS SHOP IN CRYSTAL RIVER. I THEN PARKED IN THE BP GAS STATION PARKING LOT ACROSS THE STREET FROM FANCY'S PET SHOP TO OBSERVE THE DEFENDANT DRIVING. I OBSERVED THE DEFENDANT ENTER A RED 1988 MITSUBISHI PICKUP TRUCK ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND PROCEED TO PULL OUT OF THE PET SHOP PARKING LOT MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN ONTO NORTHEAST 3RD AVENUE IN CRYSTAL RIVER. I THEN OBSERVED THE DEFENDANT PROCEED TO CRYSTAL STREET AND MAKE ANOTHER RIGHT HAND TURN ONTO CRYSTAL STREET. I THEN ACTIVATED THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS ON MY ASSIGNED PATROL VEHICLE TO CONDUCT A TRAFFIC STOP ON NORTHEAST 4TH AVENUE AND CRYSTAL STREET AT APPROXIMATELY 1214 HOURS. AFTER THE DEFENDANT STOPPED THE VEHICLE HE WAS DRIVING, HE IMMEDIATELY GOT OUT AND SAID, "I KNOW WHY YOU STOPPED ME." I THEN ASKED THE DEFENDANT WHY I STOPPED HIM AND HE REPLIED, "BECAUSE MY LICENSE IS SUSPENDED." DURING OUR CONVERSATION OF WHY THE DEFENDANT WAS BEING STOPPED, I OBSERVED HIM TO BE SLURRING HIS speech. AFTER BEING ASKED ABOUT THE SLURRING THE DEFENDANT ADVISED THAT HE DID TAKE APPROXIMATELY 60 MILLIGRAMS OF HIS DOCTOR PRESCRIBED OXYCODONE EARLIER IN THE DAY. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN ADVISED THAT HE WAS BEING PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR KNOWINGLY DRIVING ON A SUSPENDED LICENSE AS WELL AS THE TWO ACTIVE WARRANTS THAT HE HAD IN CITRUS COUNTY. HE WAS HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND HIS BACK AND PLACED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING WHERE HIS BOND WAS SET AT $500.00 PER THE BOND SCHEDULE FOR DRIVING WHILE LICENSE SUSPENDED (DWLS). PRIOR TO LEAVING THE SCENE THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OVER TO THE REGISTERED OWNER.
