2:17 p.m. — 200 block of East Granada Boulevard, Ormond Beach
Criminal mischief. Police responded to a local shopping plaza after a septic truck was spotted dumping waste into one of the plaza's drains.
The property manager reported that this took place the day before, around 8:30-9:30 a.m., and that when the driver of the truck was confronted, he connected the septic line back to the truck and left. The property owner then had to contract a company to remove the sewer waste that was left behind.
At the time of the report, the officer noted he could still smell the raw sewage. The property owner wished to press charges.
2:20 p.m. — 100 block of E. Granada Boulevard, Ormond Beach
Indecent exposure. A 51-year-old transient man told police his penis was his "freedom of expression" after he was arrested for exposing himself to a woman who refused to let him enter a dance studio.
The woman told police that the man tried to open her studio's door — which was locked — and told her he wanted to dance, according to a police report. When she declined to let him enter, he walked away, only to return later at which point he pressed his body against the studio's window, smiling and waving at the woman. He then exposed himself and the woman called police.
When officers arrived, the man was still exposed. He was secured in handcuffs and informed he was being detained for indecent exposure. The man replied that his penis was his "form of freedom of expression and that it was the only thing that works," the report notes. The man also said that he felt his penis "is an antenna to communicate."
He was taken to jail. The man had a previous conviction for indecent exposure.
