10 a.m. — 800 block of West Victoria Circle
Aggravated battery. A 23-year-old Ormond Beach man was arrested for attacking a 19-year-old man with a pool cue.
The victim told officers that the man drove to his house, got out with the pool cue in hand and began attacking him with it in his garage, striking him several times in the heads, legs and hands.
The victim said the altercation was "over a female," according to the man's arrest report, but said he had no more details to give on the matter.
The man turned himself in to police and was taken to jail.
2 a.m. — South Volusia Avenue at East Ohio Avenue
Fleeing and eluding law enforcement, no value driver's license, marijuana possession. A police officer on road patrol noticed that a silver car heading in the same direction as the officer seemed to be trying to avoid passing the officer's car.
When both vehicles stopped at a light, the officer checked the car's tag number and found that it had expired last October. The officer tried to conduct a traffic stop on the car, but it kept driving — at 15 mph.
At first, the officer thought the driver was just looking for a place to pull over, but the car continued on and on, then started to speed up until other officers cut it off from the other direction.
Officers detained five people from the car, and found that the 22-year-old driver had marijuana in his pocket, and no driver's license. He was arrested.
1:12 p.m. —800 block of South Spring Garden Avenue
Fleeing and eluding law enforcement, possession of narcotics. A deputy saw a man on a red bicycle leave a food store and cycle out into the middle of the road, into traffic.
The deputy tried to conduct a traffic stop on the bike, but the cyclist fled, then dropped the bike and ran.
As the man fled, deputies saw him "throwing/discarding unknown items into an unrelated civilian's vehicle, who had the passenger window down," according to the man's arrest report.
Deputies caught him and retrieved the items, which turned out to be plastic baggies of marijuana.
When they searched him, he also had narcotic pills on him. Deputies arrested him.
