Daylight robbery
3:44 p.m. — First block of Clement Lane, Palm Coast
Petit theft. A Palm Coast woman walked onto a residential construction site one morning and stole four 20-30-foot rebar poles while the owner and construction workers were on site.
The owner showed Sheriff’s Office deputies surveillance footage of two women in a minivan pulling up to the site to talk to the property owner, according to an arrest report. The women asked a few questions about what type of home was being built before they left the site.
Just over an hour later, at 11:49 a.m., one of the women came back and loaded four metal rebar into the minivan while the owner watched. The rebars cost approximately $400, the report said.
A deputy tracked to the woman’s minivan to a home on Clement Lane. The woman admitted to taking the rebars but only because she thought they were being thrown away.
Can’t talk the talk
10:36 a.m. — Interstate 95 near mile marker 294, Palm Coast
Resisting officer, obstruct without violence. A man was arrested when he was found walking along the interstate but refused to give law enforcement his name.
A Highway Patrol trooper saw the man as the trooper was finishing a crash investigation. The man was walking south I-95 on the right shoulder, towards the trooper, according to an arrest report.
The trooper told him it was illegal and the equivalent of a traffic violation for anyone to walk along the interstate and offered to take him off the highway but needed the man’s name, address and date of birth.
The man gave him a name, but said it so quietly the officer couldn’t hear him, and the man refused to say anything else, the report said. The name the officer was given also did not turn up in the officer’s search.
After repeated attempts to get the man to say who he was, the officer placed him under arrest and took him to jail. He was booked under the false name.
