fired in the area of 821 Cardinal Street. The caller reported that the suspect was in a gray or silver Pontiac, and was observed traveling on Forest Heights Road. A short time later Deputy Demeika McClendon observed a vehicle matching that description on Forest Heights Road and a traffic stop was conducted. This vehicle is described as a silver Pontiac 4dr. bearing Florida license number 913NWK. The driver of the vehicle, who was alone, was identified as Luis Alonzo Delarca. After Delarca was stopped, Deputy McClendon asked him about the report of shots fired and he admitted he had a gun inside the trunk of his vehicle. Deputy McClendon detained Delarca at that point and advised him of his constitutional rights per standard Miranda. Deputy McClendon questioned Delarca further about the incident and he identified 821 Cardinal Street, Lot 7, Fort Walton Beach, as his residence. Delarca further related that he had been shot at inside his home by an intruder. Fearing that there may still be suspects and/or victims inside, deputies immediately responded to Delarca s residence to conduct a protective sweep. Delarca gave deputies permission to enter his residence, but no suspect or victims were found. Deputy D.J. Fields, who as one of the deputies that conducted the protective sweep, stated that there was a strong odor of unburnt marijuana inside the trailer. Several spent shell casings were found in close proximity to Delarca s mobile home, and a projectile was removed from an adjacent trailer. Delarca had approximately $1,474.00 U.S. currency, in street fold, on his person and couldn t provide a reasonable explanation as to how he earned it. Delarca also had approximately one gram of cocaine, that field tested positive, in his possession when he was detained. Based on the circumstances of the shots fired call, the fact that Delarca was in possession of a firearm and a large amount of U.S. currency, deputies suspected the incident may be drug related. Deputy D.J. Fields, who is a dog handler with the Okaloosa County Sheriff s Office, used his canine Kilo to conduct a sniff of Delarca s vehicle. According to Deputy Fields, his canine alerted to the presence of the odor of a controlled substance coming from the passenger compartment of Delarca s vehicle. Delarca informed law enforcement that the vehicle he was operating belonged to his ex-girlfriend Aliona Ciupac, who is the registered owner of the vehicle. DHSMV records reflect that Ciupac s residence is located at 55 Robys Drive, Unit #6. During a subsequent search of Delarca s vehicle, a large amount of compressed marijuana was found inside the passenger compartment. Compressed marijuana was found inside a plastic grocery bag on front passenger seat, and approximately ten gallon size food storage bags of marijuana were also found inside a plastic garbage bag that was on the passenger s side front floor board. A large amount of U.S. currency was also found inside the plastic garbage bag, that contained the marijuana packaged for distribution, on the front floor board of the vehicle. Your Affiant obtained search warrants for both 821 Cardinal Street, Lot 7, Fort Walton Beach, Florida, and 55 Robys Drive, Unit 6, Mary Esther, Florida. During the search of 821 Cardinal Street, Lot 7, additional marijuana, U.S. currency, and drug paraphernalia, including weighing scales and packaging materials, were seized. During the search of 55 Robys Drive, Unit 6, less than twenty grams of marijuana, that field tested positive, and a smoking device were seized. Aliona Ciupac was present in the apartment when the search warrant was executed. Therefore, based on the aforementioned facts, your Affiant has probable cause to believe and does believe that Luis Alonzo Delarca is guilty of Possession of Marijuana with the Intent to Distribute, Possession of Cocaine, and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia. These offenses are in violation of Florida State Statutes 893.13, 893.147, and did occur in Okaloosa County, Florida. I hereby swear (or affirm) that the facts established on this affidavit are true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief. OCSO11ARR011097 Printed On: 11/3/2011 8:25:48 AM Page 2 of 4
