Grady Judd: Suspect in botched deadly robbery back behind bars after charges temporarily dropped

DAVENPORT, Fla. A suspect in a botched robbery that turned deadly outside a Davenport motel last year is back behind bars, according to law enforcement officials.

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office said Robert Cruceta-Pimentel, 32, was arrested once again on the same charges related to the December 2023 botched robbery that turned into a deadly self-defense shooting.

Investigators said this comes after all the charges were dropped against him temporarily by the State Attorney’s Office.
