Emerson Armstrong, a 31-year-old man from North Fort Myers, is once again making headlines, but not for anything positive. After serving 13 months in jail for a string of serious crimes, he is back in trouble for violating the terms of his probation. Authorities are now actively searching for him, and a warrant for his arrest has been issued.
According to NBC2, Armstrong’s criminal record includes a variety of offenses, from breaking into homes and stealing personal items to more serious thefts like stealing a pickup truck. He was also caught taking items as seemingly random as credit cards and even a Mickey Mouse bag. But his criminal activities didn’t stop there. Armstrong has also been in trouble for driving without a license and violating a restraining order. Two offenses that only added to his legal troubles.
