UPON MY ARRIVAL AT THE MOBILE HOME PARK, I STOPPED MY PATROL VEHICLE AT LOT 22 WHERE I OBSERVED A KNOWN HISPANIC MALE WHO MATCHED THE DESCRIPTION GIVEN BY DISPATCH. I APPROACHED THE SUSPECT, LATER IDENTIFIED AS THE DEFENDANT MR PETER M RODRIGUEZ, AND OBSERVED HIM HOLDING HIS RIGHT HAND WHICH WAS WRAPPED IN A PAPER TOWEL, BLEEDING. I ALSO OBSERVED BLOOD ON THE FRONT OF HIS SHORTS. DEPUTY VENTIMIGLIA MADE CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM, AT LOT 45, WHO THROUGH A TRANSLATOR WROTE A STATEMENT SAYING THAT THE DEFENDANT WAS YELLING OUTSIDE OF HIS HOUSE. HE STATED HE OBSERVED THE DEFENDANT HITTING HIS VEHICLE AND DAMAGING HIS WINDSHIELD WIPERS. THE VICTIM FURTHER STATED THE DEFENDANT ATTEMPTED TO ENTER HIS HOME, AT WHICH TIME HE SHUT AND LOCKED HIS FRONT DOOR. THE VICTIM STATED HE WENT TO HIS BACK ROOM TO OBSERVE THE DEFENDANT ON HIS SECURITY CAMERA. THE VICTIM STATED HE OBSERVED THE DEFENDANT THROW A BRICK THROUGH THE FRONT WINDOW CAUSING DAMAGE TO HIS WINDOW, HIS WINDOW SCREEN AND A NEW FLOOR WHICH HAD JUST BEEN INSTALLED. THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE DAMAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS. THE STATEMENT WAS LATER TURNED IN TO RECORDS. I ARRIVED AT THE VICTIM'S RESIDENCE AND OBSERVED THE DAMAGED WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON THE VICTIM'S VEHICLE. I ALSO OBSERVED MILK THAT HAD BEEN POURED IN THE HOOD OF THE VICTIM'S VEHICLE.

CORPORAL STANTON ARRIVED ON SCENE TO PERFORM CRIME SCENE TECHNICIAN DUTIES. SEE HIS ID SERVICES REPORT.

THE DEFENDANT WAS POSITIVELY IDENTIFIED BY THE VICTIM AS THE PERSON WHO HAD DAMAGED HIS VEHICLE AND HAD THROWN THE BRICK THROUGH HIS FRONT WINDOW. THE DEFENDANT WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST. HE WAS HANDCUFFED IN FRONT OF HIS PERSON, DUE TO HIS SIZE, SECURED IN THE REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING.
