Within the last few weeks, a vagrant has begun walking the streets and alleys of the Old Southeast neighborhood ALL DAY. EVERY DAY. He heads to Lassing Park EVERY NIGHT. White Male. Possibly in his 30's. Approximately 6 Ft. Tall, 225 LBs, Strawberry Blonde Hair, Ruddy Complexion. Usually has a backpack. Heads towards The Salvation Army at meal time, so I'm assuming he's eating at the SA and lodging in the OSE neighborhood. Prior to his "move" to OSE, I've seen him being handcuffed by police on 3rd Street and being put into a patrol car. Can someone PLEASE check on this situation? 1. He's not sleeping at The Salvation Army, so there is a realistic possibility that he could be in possession of drugs or is a sexual offender. Can someone check on those two things? And if he's a sexual offender, can you make sure he registers? We have young children and female joggers in our neighborhood. 2. Can you do multiple sweeps of Lassing Park each night to make sure he (and possibly others) are not camped out (especially in the mangroves in the north section of the park)? 3. Can you also check vacant houses to make sure he (and possibly others) are not squatting in empty homes?

We work closely with various City departments and local social service providers to address issues faced by our homeless population, and we also work with neighborhood associations to address the concerns they have, as well. Our Police Department has a Street Outreach Team that actively canvasses areas where the activities of the homeless are noticed, and they will continue doing so to ensure the safety of all citizens. Please immediately report any criminal activity or safety concerns to the SPPD directly by calling 727-893-7780 if not an emergency, or 911 if an emergency. Thank you.
