On November 25th, 2023, FWC Officer Michael Jovanov of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, accompanied by FWC Officer Gabrielle Midolo, was on State Water Patrol duty in the Homosassa River near Lashley Point, Citrus County, FL. They were aboard their marked FWC patrol vessel. Around 5:50pm, Officer Jovanov observed a grey pontoon boat violating the slow speed zone in Lashley Point by operating at full speed, and subsequently, another slow speed zone in the Homosassa River near Price Creek. Additionally, the vessel was operating without required navigational lights, especially crucial as it was well past sunset. Officer Jovanov attempted to halt the vessel by activating the emergency lights and sounding the siren. However, the vessel's operator, later identified as Mr. Ryan, failed to stop initially. After continuous siren activation, the vessel eventually came to a stop. Officer Jovanov identified Mr. Ryan using his Florida ID card. With the vessel stopped, Officers Jovanov and Midolo proceeded to address the violations and conduct a boating safety inspection. During this process, Mr. Ryan exhibited signs of impairment as he struggled to produce required boating safety equipment. Officer Jovanov, while assisting Mr. Ryan, noticed a strong smell of alcohol on his breath, along with slurred speech and glassy eyes. Mr. Ryan also displayed unusual behavior, attempting to view the officer's laptop and showing difficulty maintaining balance. Suspecting alcohol impairment based on observations, Officer Jovanov requested Mr. Ryan to perform Field Sobriety Exercises (SFSTs). Mr. Ryan initially struggled to understand the request and eventually refused to cooperate. Despite being informed of the odor of alcohol on his breath, Mr. Ryan retorted with an accusation of marijuana smell from the officer. Based on observations during the vessel's operation and interaction with Mr. Ryan, Officer Jovanov concluded that Mr. Ryan's faculties were impaired due to alcohol consumption. He then proceeded to inform Mr. Ryan of his arrest for Boating Under the Influence (BUI). Mr. Ryan, seated at the helm of his vessel, began to passively resist arrest by ignoring verbal commands. Jenkins was booked into the Citrus County Jail and charged with the following: 327.35(1)(a) BUI Operating a Vessel while Normal Faculties Impaired 327.359(5) BUI Refusal to Submit to 2nd or Subsequent Test (Breath Test). 843.02 Resisting Without Violence Donny Rapture,POLICE WATCH,cops,bodycam,body camera,police,news law&crime network,code blue cam,police interaction,police officer,crime documentaries,crime documentary,dui,police activity,police videos,POLICE INSIDER,police insider uncut,first amendment audit,1st amendment audit,inside edition,corrupt cops caught on camera,cop,live pd,a&e,law and crime network,crime,law enforcement,donut operator,FWC,Fish And Wildlife,Hunting,Fishing
