Man Tries To Drive Off With Officers Hand In Window
QUONTAVIUS HEGGS
The Polk County Sheriff’s Office reported that a suspect in the theft of a wallet was arrested after he showed his identifica- tion to a clerk when he used a stolen credit card to buy a cigar.
The wallet was reported stolen August 27th from the Royal Palm Bay Condos in Poin- ciana. A few days later, the vic- tim told authorities her card had been used at a Walmart on Cy- press Parkway.
Deputies reviewed security video and spoke with the clerk who told them Quontavius Heggs, 18, bought a cigar and other items with the card. She had asked to see his identifica- tion to prove he was old enough to buy tobacco, and when he showed her his ID, she entered his birth date into the system.
Deputies confirmed Heggs’ identification and discovered he was already in custody in an- other theft case. They also said he had pawned some stolen items.
Heggs now is facing charges of burglary, theft, fraud, dealing in stolen property, false verifica- tion to a pawn broker and viola- tion of probation.
