BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – Get ready to “H.I.T. the streets” with Sheriff Wayne Ivey and the men and women of the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office directed patrol unit as they police high-intensity target areas throughout Brevard County.

Hello everyone, I’m Sheriff Wayne Ivey, the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office, and it’s time to Hit the Streets with the men and women of the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office.

Everybody loves the hit series. We’re going to jump right into it tonight because we have a number of significant arrests. We’re going to head over to Mosswood Drive and Aurora Road in Melbourne, where FTO Centena and Agent Hernandez are conducting a traffic stop on a PT Cruiser.

Let’s check it out. Once they get the individual out, they find out that they’re shifting gears from doing a traffic stop to now they’re going to ice fishing because the individual was in our country legally. As we always do, we work with Customs and Border Patrol.

So, Cesar Perez Lopez, a Hispanic male, 40 years old, as you can see, he gets taken into custody on a hold for ICE, no bond. Our partners from ICE will come and get him and get him out of the country.

Okay, let’s head over to Edinburgh Drive in Coco, where our game over task force has been watching for Christopher Walker. Christopher Walker has a take-to-custody order on him for two counts of violation of probation and child abuse.

As you can see, our team had been sitting on him; he was sitting in a Tesla in the driveway. They took him down and got him into custody. He’s taken the ride for two counts of violation of probation for child abuse, violation of drug offender probation, two counts of aggravated assault with a weapon, and two counts of false imprisonment, of course. No bond, which is exactly as it should be. He takes the ride out to Ivy’s Iron Bar Lodge.

All right, let’s head over to Ivy Drive, where Izzy and Interior are trying to do a traffic stop on a guy on a bicycle. Before I got one clean and Ivy Lane, where’d he go? Where’d he go? He just disappeared into the house in the garage. He’s jumped up.

He jumped the fence in here. He’s over there. He’s running deep into it. You gotta get over blackmail, black shirt. Found your phone. We found a little black bag and it had your cell phone cords in it. It was like a little Puma bag.

We find nothing else so far. You know, that’s why I asked you to look. If you tossed the gun, I’m worried that there are kids out here because I’m worried that if a kid is walking out here, you know how it is. It’s late at night is in Cocoa. Kids walk around, someone picks up a gun, they shoot themselves, they’re injured. We didn’t find the gun yet, but I did find the Puma bag, the phone cords, and your cell phone. Those are all yours.

Okay, that’s the same pool bag that we have you on camera when we were pulling you over. All right, tell me about the gun that was inside it. Oh, no. No. No, we found it. All right, well, as you saw, I took off running, our team got there pretty quick, got a little perimeter set up, and they ended up taking Dwayne Garcia into custody, 19 years old.

As you saw, he fled on foot from the bicycle, so he ended up taking the ride for resisting without violence, unlawful carrying of a concealed firearm, with no bond. He’s not 21, so he’s not allowed to carry a concealed weapon. Now, while we’re on scene, this one takes a little bit of a twist, and actually, the old man here had to get involved a little bit.

As everybody’s working the scene and we’re doing the different things collecting evidence, I actually hear one of our citizens saying to another individual that was at the scene. His name is Christopher Dunmore, 17 years old. I actually hear him say to him, what’d you throw behind my truck? That’s it. You’ve seen him with that before. And then the citizen also was able to positively identify him as having thrown it behind the truck. It also had a firearm in it with a full magazine, in fact, a full extended magazine. So Christopher Dunmore, age 17, he took the ride for unlawful possession of a firearm and resisting an officer without violence, and of course, he had no bond as well.

All right, next up, we joined some of the members of our game over task force over on Willow Lane in Coco, and he let me set the table for this a little bit because we joined it a little bit late on video here. But what basically happened is they observed a white Nissan SUV as it ran a stop sign. They went to stop it.

The vehicle actually goes back up into a residence on Willow Lane. As the vehicle starts to back up, they activate their blue lights. The driver of the vehicle, Warren Rawson, actually attempts to flee. Our guys very quickly got bumper-to-bumper with him, so he couldn’t maneuver and get out of there, and got both him and Shailen Dunn out of the car.

They conducted a search of the vehicle, and as they were searching it, they found a backpack in there that was actually clenched between Rawson’s legs and contained six grams of cocaine and heroin. They also, in the vehicle, had possession of drug paraphernalia, and a search of Shailen Dunn’s person yielded 26 grams of cocaine. So she took the ride for possession of cocaine with intent to sell, possession of drug paraphernalia, and no bond.

He took the ride, Rawson did, for fleeing and eluding, possession of a controlled substance, two counts of that, and possession of drug paraphernalia, and his bond was $5,500. So, great job by our Game Over Task Force in not only getting the vehicle secured where they couldn’t get away and put others at risk, but also in the search of the vehicle.

Okay, next up, we are going over to Huntington Lane, which is actually right across the street from the Emergency Operations Center for Brevard County. And the old man had to show them how to do it again. So, I’ll set the table for this one. As I was coming out of the EOC, myself and Corporal Artis observed somebody that was actually running in an open field there.

Couldn’t find him right away, but found one of the storage doors. It’s a storage center there. One of the doors had a crack at the bottom of it. We could see movement in there. Went over and made contact with him, and things kind of took off from there. So, as you can see, it looks like they were taking up residence in the unit.

The individual that you see sitting there with no shirt on, Killian Jock, white male, 30 years old, made contact with him, determined that he was on probation. And of course, one of the conditions of probation is that they have to be subject to search. So Chief Singleton actually came over as backup for us.

And when we started searching his possessions that were right there, we immediately found some drugs. Got deputies over and they took it from there. Eventually, he went for possession of meth and also violation of probation, so he had no bond as well. Okay, Deputy Bree Lewis is on Townsend Road and King Street in Coco, trying to pull over a vehicle with no tag. Not a big deal, man. You got your ID on you?

Okay, I appreciate your honesty. So, as you can see, Deputy Lewis has the driver of the vehicle, William Pierce, out having a conversation with him. And what we eventually find is that he hasn’t had a driver’s license since 2017, and he is a habitual traffic offender. So he took the ride for driving while his license was suspended, a habitual $2,500 bond. As I said, the driver’s license has been suspended since 2017, so he had absolutely no business behind the wheel.

All right, folks, that’s it for tonight’s hit series. You see, our team goes out, and they do an excellent job for us. We are so blessed to serve in a community where our citizens love us and support us each and every day, but our team loves going out there and taking them off the streets.
