VIERA, Fla. — A man was arrested Sunday, just 20 minutes after being released from the Brevard County jail, on allegations of throwing rocks at sheriff’s office patrol cars, causing nearly $4,000 in damage.
Kevin Berrios was taken into custody Sunday afternoon, according to a Facebook post by Sheriff Wayne Ivey. The sheriff reported that Berrios was released from jail around 3:30 p.m. and, within 20 minutes, encountered a deputy who was driving on Camp Road while transporting another individual to jail.
Ivey stated that Berrios threw a rock that struck the deputy’s patrol car.
After arresting Berrios, the deputy “dropped everyone off at the jail, then brought his vehicle across the street to Fleet to get a loaner, when he noticed a few other vehicles that appeared to be damaged by rocks,” Ivey said in the post.
Upon reviewing surveillance footage, Berrios was seen exiting the jail, walking across the street to the Fleet Maintenance Building, and picking up objects that he then hurled toward two patrol cars, according to Ivey.
He subsequently threw a rock at the deputy’s car as well. Sheriff Ivey confirmed that the patrol vehicles sustained about $3,700 in damage.
