Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Ocala, Florida — On the morning of October 24, 2023, Michael Prouty, 39, forced his way into a woman's home in the Villages and stole her purse, cell phone, and car from the garage. Later that same day, Prouty was found driving the stolen car in Ocala. Sgt. Buetti initiated a traffic stop, but Prouty fled from police. After a few moments of a vehicle pursuit, he crashed into several vehicles at the intersection of N. Pine Ave. and SR 40. After the crash, Prouty fled the scene, which left multiple people injured. As he was running away, he encountered the first citizen who was able to grab ahold of Prouty. Although Prouty broke free, he was slowed down by citizen. Prouty attempted to carjack a woman while she was in a Starbucks drive-thru nearby. Another citizen intervened and attempted to pull Prouty out of the vehicle.
Prouty ran off again but was followed closely by the citizen. The citizen apprehended Prouty behind Starbucks for a few moments until police were able to secure him in handcuffs. Prouty is currently in the Marion County Jail and is facing multiple charges from the agency, including fleeing and eluding, attempted carjacking, and others. He was also involved in a robbery of a 7-Eleven convenience store in the early hours of Oct. 24, before the home invasion incident in Sumter County. Additionally, Prouty was sent to prison in 2017 for six years on burglary and robbery charges. He was released from prison in July 2022 on a community release program which he violated and committed more felony crimes in Miami-Dade County. He returned to prison to finish his initial sentence and was released in February 2023. He was turned over to Miami-Dade jail for the pending felony charges and bonded out in March 2023. |

Licensing
[edit] |
This work was created by a government unit (including state, county, and municipal government agencies) of the U.S. state of Florida. It is a public record that was not created by an agency which state law has allowed to claim copyright and is therefore in the public domain in the United States.
Definition of "public record"
Public records are works "made or received in connection with the official business of any public body, officer, or employee of the state, or persons acting on their behalf, [which includes the work of] the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government and each agency or department created thereunder; counties, municipalities, and districts; and each constitutional officer, board, and commission, or entity created pursuant to [Florida] law or [its] Constitution" (Florida Constitution, §24) such as a work made or received pursuant to law or ordinance or in connection with the transaction of official business by any state, county, district, or other unit of government created or established by law of the State of Florida (definition of public work found in Chapter 119.011(12), Florida Statutes). Agencies permitted to claim copyright
Florida's Constitution and its statutes do not permit any agency to claim copyright for "public records" unless authorized to do so by law. The following agencies are permitted to claim copyright (as well as trademarks) and any works of these agencies should be assumed to be copyrighted without clear evidence to the contrary:
Works by defunct state agencies may be copyrighted if these rights were transferred to a new or different agency (note that legislation transferring such right may not have been codified into Florida Statutes). For example, copyright in works by the Florida Space Authority may have been transferred to Space Florida. State and municipal government agencies may claim copyright for software created by the agency (§ 119.084, F.S. 2018). In case law, Microdecisions, Inc. v. Skinner—889 So. 2d 871 (Fla. 2d DCA 2004) (Findlaw)—held that the Collier County Property Appraiser could not require commercial users to enter into a licensing agreement, holding that "[the agency] has no authority to assert copyright protection in the GIS maps, which are public records." Note: Works that are considered "public records" but were not created by a state or municipal government agency may be copyrighted by their author; the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution prevents state law from overriding the author's right to copyright protection that is granted by federal law. For example, a state agency may post images online of the final appearance of a building under construction; while the images may be "public records", their creator (eg. architecture/construction firm) retains copyright rights to the image unless the contract with the agency says otherwise.
