Emerson Armstrong, a 31-year-old man from North Fort Myers, is once again making headlines, but not for anything positive. After serving 13 months in jail for a string of serious crimes, he is back in trouble for violating the terms of his probation. Authorities are now actively searching for him, and a warrant for his arrest has been issued.

According to NBC2, Armstrong’s criminal record includes a variety of offenses, from breaking into homes and stealing personal items to more serious thefts like stealing a pickup truck. He was also caught taking items as seemingly random as credit cards and even a Mickey Mouse bag. But his criminal activities didn’t stop there. Armstrong has also been in trouble for driving without a license and violating a restraining order. Two offenses that only added to his legal troubles.

North Fort Myers Man Wanted:

After getting busted with all that stolen stuff, authorities were able to return many of the victims’ belongings. The North Fort Myers man was convicted and served his time in the Lee County Jail. Just under two months ago, he was released on probation, hoping to reintegrate into society. However, it didn’t take long for him to slip up again. Now, he faces a probation violation, which has led to the issuance of a new arrest warrant.

Armstrong is 5-foot-8 and weighing around 140 pounds. His last known address is in North Fort Myers. Law enforcement is urging anyone with information about his whereabouts to come forward. If you know where he is, make sure you hit up Southwest Florida Crime Stoppers at 1-800-780-TIPS or submit a tip online. Tipsters who provide information that leads to Armstrong’s arrest could get themselves a cash reward up to $3,000.

If you’ve seen Armstrong or have any knowledge of his location, now’s the time to step up and help. His time on the run may soon be over, and your tip could make all the difference in bringing him to justice.

Florida Man Criminal Found Hiding In A North Fort Myers Attic With His Face Against The Air Duct To Breathe

Over the weekend the Lee County Sheriff’s Office responded to a burglary in progress at a home on 4th Way in North Fort Myers. When the cops entered the house they could hear the Florida Man criminal walking in the attic. Also, they found a 5 gallon bucket on the floor under the attic access and insulation on the floor. This Florida man needs to work on his ninja stealth abilities. But he was resourceful in other ways.

The deputies yelled for him to come down out of the attic, but Florida Man did not respond. The cops put a non lethal gas canister into the attic to smoke him out. He buried himself in the insulation with his face against the air duct system to breathe fresh air. No go on the smoke.

So they had to go up there and get him. Keep in mind how hot it gets in a Florida attic. That’s when Florida Man Bruce Davis surrendered. Dude’s covered in itchy insulation and the cops are like “we should take his picture first”. I get it, this pic could make some solid memes.

What was he doing in the house? According to LCSO “A search of the home also revealed a broken window, appliances in use, and tools scattered throughout the residence. ” Appliances in use? Was he making a smoothie? Doing laundry?  This Florida Man criminal was charged with burglary and resisting an officer.
