Officer Frage narrative,

On 10/04/2023 at approximately 0847 hours, I (Officer Frage) responded to the north west corner of Amelia Av and E New York Av in reference to a person I witnessed accept money while holding a sign asking for help.

Upon my arrival, I approached the person, who later identified herself as Alex. Suspect folded the sign she was holding when I approached. I explained to Suspect that panhandling was not allowed at this intersection per Deland City Ordinance 21-29. Suspect argued that I had no proof that she was panhandling and she stated that she was not going to leave and that she was going to continue asking for money at this intersection, despite me asking her several times to leave the intersection with her signs Suspect continued to refuse to leave. The sign that Suspect was holding stated “I AM AN American Republican Humanitarian Cri$i$ in Need of Your A$$i$tance The Communist Left (Dems) Have Caused this Situation I am also A Jason Aldean Fan Any Amount Help$ &I$ Deeply Appreciated.” Suspect had another sign next to her that was not asking for money. I then placed Suspect in handcuffs, which were double locked and checked for proper fit and stated she was now being detained for panhandling. Suspect continued to attempt to pull away by pulling her arms and body away from me. I maintained positive contact with Suspect as I held onto her arm preventing her from getting away. I requested another unit to come to the scene and stay with Suspect belongs while I brought her to my patrol vehicle which was less than 50 ft away. Sergeant Cody arrived on scene and stayed with Suspects belongings. I started to move Suspect to my patrol vehicle and she was trying to stop walking and began to drop her weight until eventually she kneeled on the ground. Suspect refused to cooperate with me and walk to the vehicle. Sergeant Cody came to my aide and assisted me in bringing Suspect to my patrol vehicle. Officer Lowery arrived on scene shortly after to search the subject as she was female. Suspect was placed into the secure compartment of my patrol vehicle where she stayed while I completed paperwork. Suspect belonging were placed into the trunk of my patrol vehicle. It should be noted Suspect stated that I was hurting her when she was detained, despite me only maintaining a hold of her arms. I asked Suspect if she would like medical attention and she initially declined. While waiting in the car Suspect started to complain of wrist pain. I offered to loosen her handcuffs, I would just need her to face away from me while I do so to which she refused and then declined the offer for her cuffs to be loosened. When I was close to completing my report, Suspect stated she would like to go to her hospital regarding the pain that she was feeling in her wrists. Suspect was transported to Advent Health in Deland for a medical evaluation, where she was x-rayed and determined to have no injuries and released. Photos of Suspect signs were taken and uploaded to evidence.com. Suspect was transported to Volusia County Branch Jail. It should be noted that due to an error in Central Square, I am unable to use the correct city ordinance violation in the "Charge(s)" section.

DAYTONA BEACH — City government officials are asking a federal judge to allow enforcement of Daytona Beach's panhandling law while a legal challenge to the ordinance winds through the courts.
A month ago, U.S. District Judge Wendy Berger issued a preliminary injunction that has been blocking enforcement of Daytona Beach's panhandling ordinance, which has been in place for more than four and a half years.

On Wednesday, the attorney representing Daytona Beach in the federal suit, Michael Kahn, filed a motion asking Berger to stay that injunction and allow the city to resume enforcement of its panhandling restrictions.
"Should we lose that, we'll ask the appellate court to do the same thing," said Kahn, who's based in Melbourne.

The case is set to go to trial in May of next year, and the city doesn't want to spend the next eight months battling the rampant panhandling problem it had prior to the ordinance being adopted in early 2019.
