CLERMONT, Fla. – A man got a lot of attention, allegedly “kicking and hitting vehicles in the neighborhood” late at night, and seemed to go on a violent rant when sheriff’s deputies became involved.
A woman in her car called the cops to report
a man “in a black sweat suit was outside and hitting her roommate’s vehicle,” the arrest report from Florida said. “Female caller advised the male subject was approaching her vehicle; therefore, she began to drive away.”
She returned and reported seeing the man “standing in the middle of the road, yelling. Female caller also observed the male subject hitting and kicking a white car.”
That was after 10 p.m. on Dec. 5, and the deputy writing the arrest report arrived to find Eugenio Rafael Rosa Quinones “yelling at [a detective]. [Three deputies] detained the defendant and escorted him to a patrol vehicle.”
But the situation wasn’t even close to ending.
“Defendant began to kick and yell inside the patrol vehicle,” deputies reported, “and [the] defendant was ordered to stop kicking. The defendant began kicking the patrol vehicle again; therefore, deputies made the decision to place defendant in four-point restraints. [The detective] escorted the defendant out of the patrol vehicle and onto the ground. While deputies were securing the defendant in four-point restraints, the defendant began to yell, causing nearby residents to exit their residence.
“After securing the defendant, deputies observed an abrasion on defendant’s right cheek,” so they called the paramedics, but “defendant was uncooperative with fire and EMS personnel, and refused medical treatment.
“The defendant was secured inside a patrol vehicle” again, while authorities spoke to witnesses and victims.
Victim 1 said her daughter told her about a man “screaming and running up and down the street,” so she “locked the front door of their residence, due to the defendant’s erratic behavior.”
Victim 2 said “she was inside her living room when she heard yelling from outside,” and “saw the defendant walking up and down the street while yelling.” Both signed sworn affidavits with intent to prosecute.
Another deputy responded to the first woman’s “complaint of damaged property caused by the defendant.” She reported arriving home and seeing him “kicking her roommate’s car doors.”
This victim, the roommate, “declined prosecution for damages on the doors of her blue 2020 Infiniti.” She explained her car had “previous damage; therefore, she is unsure of the damages the defendant caused.
“Female caller stated that the male then walked down the street where he proceeded to kick another car across the road from her residence.”
That car was a gray 2017 Volkswagen with damage “to the front passenger door and fender.” The deputy mentioned noticing “two distinct shoeprints which caused numerous scratches and chips in the paint, as well as denting of the metal.”
In this case, authorities ran the license plate and told the victim what had happened. This victim “estimated the cost to repair at $1,800,” and said he wanted to prosecute.
As for Rosa Quinones, authorities said he “was taken into custody, and search incident to arrest was conducted. Due to the defendant’s injuries,” they took him to a hospital.
“While waiting for medical staff,” the arrest report said, “defendant began to pull away from [another deputy] and I. [The deputy] and I attempted to deescalate the defendant with negative results.
“Defendant began to act erratically, yelling and pulling away from deputies. Defendant was escorted to the floor by [the other deputy]. Defendant was placed in four-point restraints attached to the hospital bed, to allow medical personnel to provide medical treatment to defendant.”
After medical clearance, he was taken to jail.
Rosa Quinones, turning 46 on this day, was charged with criminal mischief, a felony, plus breach of peace-disorderly conduct and resisting without violence.
He was booked well after midnight and released less than six hours later, in lieu of $4,000 bond.
His arraignment is scheduled for Dec. 27.
