DUI suspect attacks Florida cop for waking him at crash, then starts rapping, cops say
The Belleville News-Democrat ^ | December 27, 2022 | Mark Price

A man released from prison two months ago is now the suspect in a bizarre DUI incident that included him attacking a Florida deputy, then rapping “you think I’m scared of prison,” according to the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office.

The incident happened on Christmas when a crash was reported at the intersection of Sisco Road and Olivia Lane in Pomona Park, the sheriff’s office said in a news release. Pomona Park is about 75 miles south of Jacksonville.

“Upon arrival, the deputy made contact with (a man) sitting in the driver’s seat of a Hyundai Sonata that appeared to have hit the Olivia Lane road sign. The vehicle was still running and (he) appeared unconscious with a bottle of alcohol in his lap,” the sheriff’s office reported.

“The deputy turned the vehicle off and instructed (the suspect) to exit the vehicle. (He) attempted to exit the vehicle, then sat back down and tried to start the vehicle. The deputy then pulled (him) out of the vehicle."

That’s when the 39-year-old driver “pushed the deputy,” knocked his radio to the ground and tried pulling the deputy’s gun out of its holster, officials said.

“The deputy was able to take (him) to the ground and secure him with the assistance of fire-rescue personnel,” the sheriff’s office said. “After securing (the man), the suspect began rapping to the deputy, ‘You think I’m scared of prison’.”

I’ve had plenty of folks I had to wake up at the scene. Never had a rapper.

Back in High School a guy sucker punched me and knocked me out.

Some girl afterwards said she was shocked at how I talked to the teacher. All I remembered was telling the teacher I didn’t need to go to the nurse - and that the guy who punched me is that should be leaving the class room.

“No - before that!”

“What do you mean?”

“You were yelling at the teacher and swearing at him and trying to hit him - I’ve never seen you yell at anyone - much less swear or fight.”

I do recall sleeping on the floor in the classroom and feeling embarrassed, and then coming to my senses (I thought). “Oh - it’s just a dream!” And I fell back to sleep.

Anyone caught rapping should get a mandatory 11/29.

My wife and I happen to own real estate very near where this accident happened, the “Florida Man” is named Ronald Cummings, before his recent 12-year prison sentence, he had a daughter named Haleigh Cummings who was 5 or 6 years old, one night while he was at work, the girlfriend of Ronald Cummings was at home with the child, the child was reported missing and to this day has never been found and no one has been charged with a crime.

The girlfriend assigned to watch the child is named Misty Crosland, she was arrested at the same time as Ronald Cummings years ago, she is still in prison on drug charges.

When the child went missing it was headline news on all the local news stations for a couple of weeks.

Here’s an article about the case.

Too bad no audio; might have gotten a 6 figure recording contract.

“you think I’m scared of prison”
He's right: the threat of prison time is no longer a disincentive for crime. Prison either isn't sure enough or scary enough. Or, sadly, it's a mark of admiration for some segments of society.
