Aggravated stalking. Deputies arrested a 67-year-old Palm Coast man who walked up to his neighbor's Ring camera doorbell and held up a knife, threatening to harm them with it.
The neighbors told police that they used to have a friendly relationship with the man, but that he "would often overstep boundaries," according to the police report. On some occasions, the man entered their home without permission and allowed his dog to defecate on their lawn without cleaning it up.
After an instance in July 2023 where one of the neighbors felt the man was flirting through text, she made it clear she was not comfortable, at which point she became his "enemy," the report states. The harassment has been continuous since, including sitting on his front porch and "mooing" at her.
Deputies have been called to the residence on three different times within the past year. When deputies attempted to contact the man at his home, he didn't answer. He was later located and taken to jail, where he is being held without bond.

Burglary of a unoccupied structure. A 53-year-old South Daytona man who stole — and quickly returned — a $37 piece of sheet rock from a home under construction was arrested by deputies.
The man was seen on surveillance footage driving onto the property, which had a "no trespassing" sign posted, and dumping items into a dumpster. He then entered the home and stole the sheet rock, which he returned a few minutes later on foot, according to his arrest report.
The man told deputies that he returned it after determining he didn't need it, and feeling guilt for taking it.
He was taken to jail.
