Man says $8,000 in fishing gear stolen from doorstep

2:37 p.m. First block of Beacon Mill Lane. Larceny: A 42-year-old man ordered a $7,000 solid state marine radar and antenna and a $1,132 transducer from an online fishing company. The packages were supposed to be delivered to his front door. He got a tracking number, and the tracking data showed that the packages had been dropped off at his home the evening of June 16. But the man never got them. He called the Sheriff's Office.

Accused shoplifter bites store employee

7:14 p.m. 100 block of Cypress Point Parkway. Aggravated battery: An employee at a local big box store saw a woman pull tags from shaving items and stick the items in her purse, slice a cell phone from its lock peg with a pair of scissors and place the phone in her purse, and then appear to steal things from the fishing aisle. Two employees confronted her, and she tried to run, then bit one of the employees who tried to stop her, "causing deep impressions and bruising breaking the skin" on his arm, according to a deputy's report. Deputies arrested the woman, a 27-year-old who'd been arrested nine times before in Flagler County on charges including probation violation, shoplifting and selling drugs. Among the items she'd tried to steal was a $20 family pool and a Boost phone.
