Bond Revoked For Molino Man, Search Continues For His Brother
February 11, 2014
An Escambia County judge has ordered a young Molino man held without bond until his trial, and deputies are continuing to search for brother in connection with numerous stolen weapons recovered outside a Pensacola motel.
An Escambia County Sheriff’s Deputy was in the area of Plantation Road in January when he recognized 20-year old Jeremiah Cooler of Molino as a suspect wanted for burglaries and attempted home invasions in Santa Rosa County. Cooler, according to an arrest report, had been involved in a police pursuit with the Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office days before, and the vehicle with a matching tag number from the pursuit was outside the motel where Cooler was spotted.
As the deputy detained another individual with an outstanding warrant, witnesses said Jeremiah Cooler ran from the motel, threw a backpack into a dumpster and entered a nearby Waffle House. Surveillance video confirmed Cooler was involved in the sequence of events.
Deputies transported Cooler from the Waffle House back to the motel. Inside the backpack from the dumpster, they found five guns — four of which were reported stolen from Santa Rosa County, numerous rounds of ammunition, an iPad and a Toshiba tablet.
Jeremiah Cooler was charged with dealing in stolen property and destruction of evidence. Judge Terry Terrell ordered his bond revoked in the case and an outstanding marijuana case. He is due in court next month on the drug charge and in May on the stolen property and evidence case.
Deputies said they are also searching for his brother, 19-year old Shawn Cooler, on an active outstanding warrant. Anyone with any information on his whereabouts is urged to contact Crimestoppers at (850) 433-STOP.
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office also said a vehicle matching the description of Cooler’s blue Pontiac Grand Prix was also involved in several residential burglaries in the Perdido Key area. Their investigation is continuing.
