Florida burglars spotted driving pickup with \u2018stolen tag\u2019 written on cardboard, deputies say<\/h3>\n

Two men in a pickup truck with \u201cstolen tag\u201d written on a piece of cardboard to serve as a license plate were arrested in connection with multiple burglaries in Brevard County, according to sheriff\u2019s officials.<\/p>\n

Anthony Sosa, 31, and Chad Doulette, 36, were taken into custody Thursday and face multiple charges of grand theft and burglary.<\/p>\n

According to a probable cause affidavit, the pickup was spotted Wednesday at several houses on Tropical Trail on Merritt Island, where the burglaries occurred.<\/p>\n

The Brevard County Sheriff\u2019s Office said jewelry worth thousands of dollars and a handgun were stolen from the homes.<\/p>\n

One of Brevard County\u2019s most scenic streets isn\u2019t known for crime, but resident Mark Skwarvk said he can understand what might attract thieves to the neighborhood. Home values are in the millions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe affluence of the area would make it enticing, but it\u2019s just the one road in and out,\u201d Skwarvk said. \u201cIt\u2019s too easy to get caught.\u201d<\/p>\n

One of the homeowners reported to deputies that the pickup had a piece of cardboard that read \u201cstolen tag\u201d attached where the license plate should be. The pickup was later seen on Pineda Causeway in Melbourne and was pulled over by authorities, according to the affidavit.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople who commit crimes like these are not the sharpest tools in the shed,\u201d Skwarvk told News 6.<\/p>\n

The affidavit said deputies searched the vehicle and found the stolen jewelry and handgun in the pickup.<\/p>\n

The sheriff\u2019s office said Sosa and Doulette were both convicted in the past on charges of grand theft and attempted burglary, respectively, in Lee County.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The NYPD is searching for a trio of men who managed to steal $300,000 in cash from an armored truck outside of a bank in Brooklyn on Friday.<\/p>\n

The brazen robbery happened at around 1 p.m. in Sunset Park, in front of a Chase Bank located at the corner of 8th Avenue and 55th Street.<\/p>\n

According to authorities, a Brink’s employee was making a bank money drop when two of the suspects approached him and began to ask for directions.<\/p>\n

While the employee was distracted, the third suspect managed to grab a bag of cash that had been left unattended on the bumper of the armored truck and ran from the scene, heading south on 8th Avenue.<\/p>\n

School resource officer found \u2018passed out\u2019 in patrol car at red light, Florida cops say<\/h3>\n

A school resource officer was fired after a Florida sheriff\u2019s office said he was \u201cpassed out\u201d behind the wheel of his patrol vehicle at a red light for a full light cycle, according to an internal investigation from the agency.<\/p>\n

Christopher Greene, who worked for the Pinellas County Sheriff\u2019s Office and was stationed at a high school in Kenneth City, about 20 miles southwest of Tampa, was terminated Dec. 20, according to a spokesperson for the agency.<\/p>\n

The investigating agency said Greene was not criminally charged because responding deputies initially thought he was suffering from a medical condition and did not test him for impairment at the scene.<\/p>\n

Deputies from neighboring Hillsborough County responded Dec. 18, to a report of a man \u201cslumped over the steering wheel\u201d of a marked Pinellas County patrol vehicle while it was stopped at a red light at an intersection in Brandon, according to an internal investigation released to McClatchy News by the Pinellas County Sheriff\u2019s Office. Brandon is about 12 miles east of Tampa.<\/p>\n

The cruiser stopped at the red light just after 6 p.m., according to the documents. When the light turned green, the vehicle in front of the cruiser made a right turn, but the cruiser did not move, investigators said.<\/p>\n

Eventually, a woman walked up to the passenger side of the vehicle and called law enforcement at about 6:15 p.m., the documents say. She later told deputies she was stopped behind the cruiser for a full light cycle before she went up to the window and saw the driver slumped over and appearing to be \u201casleep,\u201d according to the investigation.<\/p>\n

A worker from a nearby restaurant later told deputies he went out to the street to help direct traffic around the cruiser, and did so for about 10 minutes while the driver stayed \u201cmotionless\u201d inside, documents say.<\/p>\n

When a Hillsborough County deputy arrived at the scene, Greene \u201ccame to\u201d and tried to put his cruiser in drive, according to the internal investigation. When the deputy asked him to get out of his vehicle, he was \u201creluctant to step out,\u201d documents say.<\/p>\n

Greene was off duty at the time, according to the investigation.<\/p>\n

The Hillsborough County deputy did not consider alcohol to be a factor in the incident and asked Greene if he had a medical condition, according to the investigation. Greene said he had been recently diagnosed with diabetes. Hillsborough County fire rescue officials drove Greene to a local hospital for an evaluation.<\/p>\n

During his evaluation, a nurse \u201cspontaneously stated\u201d that he seemed \u201creally drunk,\u201d according to the investigation. A supervisor told a deputy who was with Greene at the hospital not to detain him but to \u201cstall him,\u201d documents say. Greene left the hospital anyway and got a ride to his father\u2019s house, documents say.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, deputies at the scene of the traffic incident got into Greene\u2019s vehicle to drive it away and noticed alcohol bottles and cans inside, the investigation says.<\/p>\n

A deputy found an empty \u201cshooter\u201d whiskey bottle on the passenger-side floorboard, a paper bag with multiple whiskey bottles inside and an open, partially empty can of beer in the cup holder, documents say.<\/p>\n

A sergeant then went to find Greene at his father\u2019s house and administered two breath tests, the investigation says. His results were 0.234 blood alcohol content and 0.223 blood alcohol content, the investigation says. Both results are nearly three times the legal limit of 0.08 blood alcohol content.<\/p>\n

Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri terminated Greene on Dec. 20 and cited a sheriff\u2019s office policy \u201cconcerning members operating a motor vehicle while impaired,\u201d according to a termination letter.<\/p>\n

The Hillsborough County Sheriff\u2019s Office, which handled the investigation into Greene\u2019s conduct, said Greene was not criminally charged in connection with the incident because the containers of alcohol were found in his vehicle after he had left the hospital, meaning investigators could no longer test for impairment.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen (Hillsborough County Sheriff\u2019s Office) deputies initially responded to the scene, Greene stated that he was having medical issues,\u201d an agency spokesperson said in an email. \u201cOur immediate concern at that time was to make sure his medical issues were addressed. He was taken to the hospital due to those health concerns. Deputies found containers inside the vehicle that appeared to contain alcohol after the driver was no longer at the hospital, so we were unable to test for impairment. Because of that, Greene did not face any criminal charges in connection to the incident.\u201d<\/p>\n

Greene could not be reached for comment.<\/p>\n

The Pinellas County Sheriff\u2019s Office released an email sent by Gualtieri in 2013 alerting employees to its policy on impaired driving.<\/p>\n

\u201cI never want to be in the position of having to terminate anyone\u2019s employment; however, I also do not want to be the one knocking on the door of someone\u2019s home at 2 :00 a.m. telling them that their loved one was killed by a DUI driver-especially one that works for (Pinellas County Sheriff\u2019s Office),\u201d the email says. \u201cThere is an easy solution to avoid any consequence of this new policy – don\u2019t drive while impaired.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
