| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: DOYLE, CHAD 0438 (AR13-4943) UNLAWFULLY ENDANGER THE SAFETY OF ANOTHER OR THEIR PROPERTY WHILE INTOXICATED OR DID WHILE INTOXICATED OR DRINKING AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE IN A PUBLIC PLACE CAUSE A PUBLIC DISTURBANCE, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE NUMBER 856.011. ON 032113, I RESPONDED TO NUMEROUS REPORTS IN THE AREA OF HIGHWAY 19 SOUTH AND US HIGHWAY 98 IN HOMOSASSA, IN REFERENCE TO A FEMALE WALKING DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE SOUTHBOUND LANE OF HIGHWAY 19 WEARING DARK CLOTHING. WE HAD REPORTS FROM FOUR MOTORISTS THAT THEY HAD ALMOST STRUCK THE PEDESTRIAN. AS I WAS APPROACHING THE INTERSECTION OF MISS MAGGIE DRIVE AND HIGHWAY 19 SOUTH, I GOT TO THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION AND I NOTICED A DARK SHADOWY FIGURE WALKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SOUTHBOUND OUTSIDE LANE. THE SUBJECT, LATER IDENTIFIED AS THE DEFENDANT, MS CATHERINE MORRISON, WAS STAGGERING AND AS I ACTIVATED MY EMERGENCY BLUE AND RED LIGHTS SHE WALKED OFF THE ROADWAY ON TO THE SHOULDER. AT THAT TIME, I MADE CONTACT WITH HER AND ASKED HER WHY SHE WAS WALKING IN THE ROAD AND SHE STATED THAT SHE THOUGHT IT WAS SAFER TO WALK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD THAN ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I ASKED HER WHERE SHE WAS GOING AND SHE STATED, TO HER BOYFRIENDâS RESIDENCE IN CHASSAHOWITZKA. I COULD DETECT A STRONG ODOR OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE EMANATING FROM HER PERSON. I THEN OBTAINED HER DRIVER'S LICENSE AND RAN A WANTS AND WARRANTS CHECK, WHICH CAME BACK NEGATIVE. AT THIS TIME, DUE TO THE DEFENDANT BEING UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL AND HER BEHAVIOR, THE DEFENDANT WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST, HANDCUFFED, (DOUBLE LOCKED), BEHIND HER BACK, SECURED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. THE DEFENDANT'S BOND WAS SET AT $150.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. SHE WAS ALSO ISSUED FLORIDA UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION 6985WQB5 FOR OBSTRUCTING OR HINDERING TRAFFIC ON A HIGHWAY, WITH A CIVIL FINE OF $64.50 PAYABLE WITHIN THIRTY DAYS AT THE CITRUS COUNTY CLERK OF COURTS. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE AT THE JAIL, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE DEFENDANT HAD CUT HER RIGHT ARM WITH SOME TYPE OF RAZOR. SHE WAS SEEN BY THE JAIL NURSE PRIOR TO BEING ADMITTED TO THE JAIL AND THE NURSE CLEARED HER. I ASKED HER WHY SHE CUT HERSELF AND SHE ADVISED THAT SHE WAS VERY MAD AT HER BOYFRIEND BECAUSE HE TOOK HER CELLULAR PHONE AND HE WAS POSSIBLY CHEATING HER. |
