BUNNELL, FL – On April 3, 2023, FCSO deputies responded to a shoplifting in progress at Target on State Road 100. The reporting party observed a white male select a “Razor” brand electric scooter valued at $539.99 and pass all points of sale without paying before exiting the store.
Upon arrival, deputies located a man matching the suspect’s description assembling the electric scooter in front of the store on the sidewalk. The male, later identified as Patrick Vandermeyden-Miller, was placed under arrest for Petit Theft. Upon a search of his person, drug paraphernalia was located in his pocket. Vandermeyden-Miller was transported to the Sheriff Perry Hall Inmate Detention Facility on charges of Petit Theft and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia. He is being held on $2,000 bond.
“This dumb criminal of the week must have thought he was in another state or city where it’s okay to walk into a store and steal what you want and not face any consequences,” said Sheriff Rick Staly. “He didn’t get to ride ‘his’ Razor but he did get a free ride to the Green Roof Inn in the backseat of a patrol car!”
