This guy is giving Roberts all over the world a bad name.
He was asked to list his occupation on an arrest report.
So, suspect Robert Phillips, who is facing multiple drugs charges, wrote ‘drug dealer’.
After pulling up in the 2000 block of the street, the detective watched as Phillips engaged in a ‘hand-to-hand drugs transaction involving heroin’. He then alerted his colleagues, who arrived in marked cars.
Phillips, who realized he had been caught out, fled the scene ‘at high speed’, before pulling into a parking lot and running into an arts store in nearby Okeechobee Boulevard, police said.
Once inside the store, he reportedly crashed into a female customer, knocking her to the ground. At the same time, the suspect dropped a loaded handgun, his arrest report said.
Phillips then ran out the back of the store, where deputies were poised to arrest him. After detaining him, they carried out a search and found he was carrying 22g of heroin and $2,316 in cash, it is said.
A later search of the stolen Hyundai that Phillips had been driving reportedly produced 5.3g of crack cocaine, as well as a drug scale and hypodermic needles, according to the Palm Beach Post.
Phillips was charged with a whole bunch of stuff and is currently in jail with a $242k bond.
