Half a pill = jail time
1:36 a.m. — 800 Block of Belle Terre Parkway. Narcotics. A sedan was pulled over in response to the driver’s side headlight being out. The officer asked the driver if he had anything illegal in his vehicle, to which he responded, “No.” He then consented to a search of his vehicle.
Inside the vehicle was a backpack, which the driver said belonged to his cousin. He also stated that he had been using the backpack for “more than a couple of months” and that he didn’t mind if the deputy searched it. Inside, the deputy located a small white pill bottle, in which there was half of a rectangular white pill with “G3” imprinted on one side. The deputy identified the pill as alprazolam 2 mg.
The driver was then read his rights and was asked once again how long he had been using the backpack. He stated he wasn’t sure, but that it was more than a few months. He stated that he puts “papers and things in it for work and what not.”
The driver was placed under arrest and transferred to the Flagler County Inmate Facility.

Sack of pennies ... gone!

... watch road, not laptop
12:32 a.m. — 1000 Block of Justice Lane. Police vehicle damage. A deputy had just cleared a call from the inmate facility and was traveling on Justice Lane when he glanced down at his computer to see if any calls were holding.
When he looked up, he was at a curve in the road and was not able to stop the vehicle before running off the road, over a concrete culvert and into the woods. The car also ran over a guide wire for a street light located at the curve.
The incident resulted in damage to the front bumper and left side wheel well. The vehicle was removed from the wood line, and the power company was notified to assess the damage to the guide wire.
