Sarasota News Leader December 14, 2012 Page 52 VIOLENT FELON CAPTURED BY SHERIFF���S OFFICE The Sarasota County Sheriff���s Office, working in conjunction with the U.S. Marshals Florida Regional Fugitive Task Force, this week arrested a wanted felon known for gun violence. Deputies found Jadavian Shird, 20, of 3217 Newtown Blvd., at the Budget Inn Motel, 8100 North Tamiami Trail, and arrested him without incident at 1:40 p.m., Dec. 11, the Sheriff���s Office reported. Shird was wanted for armed robbery with a firearm and domestic battery by strangulation, but he is facing new charges for attacking a former girlfriend and threatening her and three other women with a gun Sunday night, a news release points out. The report says the former girlfriend told deputies she was with her sister and two friends at Newtown Rec when Shird approached them, pulled out a black handgun and pointed it at them. The former girlfriend added that Shird left but returned about 45 minutes later, then approached her and began to choke her. The other three women pulled him away from her, the report says. Jadavian Shird/Contributed Shird was booked on the outstanding warrants and charged with one additional count of Domestic Battery by Strangulation and four counts of Aggravated Assault with a Firearm, the release says. He has been arrested four times for similar violent crimes in the past three years, the release adds. Old school journalism. 21st century delivery.
