Escambia Man Sentenced For Aggravated Assault Of Deputy
July 22, 2017
An Escambia County Jury found Carlos Lamar Warren, Jr., guilty of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer. Immediately following the verdict, Circuit Judge Gary Bergosh sentenced Warren to a maximum sentence of 15 years in state prison.
On December 11, 2015, Deputies Craft, Kamau, Melton, and Sgt. Brown were on bike patrol in the area of Massachusetts and Erres Blvd. About 7:40 p.m. Deputy Melton observed a white Nissan sitting in the middle of Erres Blvd. with no headlights activated.
Deputy Melton then observed a hand-to- hand transaction between the driver of the vehicle and an approaching subject. After the transaction, the driver of the Nissan made a U-turn, activated the vehicle lights, and headed in the direction of law enforcement. As law enforcement approached the vehicle, Deputy Melton stopped his bike in the path of the vehicle, illuminated himself and the cabin of the vehicle, thereby signaling to the driver to stop the vehicle.
The driver of the vehicle slowed down as it approached Deputy Melton and the other law enforcement deputies. However, once the vehicle was approximately two feet away from Deputy Melton, it accelerated, struck Deputy Melton's bike, ran a stop sign, and fled the scene. Had Deputy Melton not jumped off of his bike, he would have been struck by the vehicle. Upon viewing a photo of Mr. Warren, each deputy identified Mr. Warren as the driver who struck Deputy Melton's bike and almost struck Deputy Melton.
