April 25
Catch of the day
11:49 a.m. — Fortunato Park.
Found Property.
The witness said she started fishing on the dock at 6 p.m. At 8:30 p.m., she caught something on her line which she thought was a stick or something. When she reeled it in, she saw it was a revolver.
The gun was heavily covered with barnacles. She took the gun home, but called police the next day and turned it in.
The gun is corroded so badly that the make, model and caliber cannot be determined.

Finders: stealers
12:03 a.m. — 100 Block of Williamson Boulevard.
Theft.
The victims arrived at the motel about 11:50 p.m. They checked in and one went up to the room while the other parked the car between the motel and the restaurant next door.
After parking, the victim removed a red rolling suitcase and a blue rolling suitcase from the car and left them in the lot while he went into the motel. When he returned, the suitcases were gone. He said he was gone for about five minutes.
The officer was unable to locate any witnesses or businesses with video of the area.

What’s in a name?
1:04 a.m. — 900 Block of South Atlantic Avenue
False name given; no valid driver’s license.
The officer stopped a car because it was traveling at night without headlights. The driver said he did not have identification, but gave his name. However, when asked to repeat it, he spelled his name three different ways.
Asked for his Social Security number, he gave a number, but was unable to repeat it. The officer could smell burnt cannabis coming from the car.
The suspect then gave another name, and had a Florida ID with that name. A records check showed that he never had a driver’s license and his driving privilege was suspended because of possession of a controlled substance.
The suspect was transported to Volusia County Jail.
