Sebastian woman charged with impersonating a police officer, robbery, kidnapping
September 16th, 2009 by TCPalm.comA Sebastian woman remained in custody Tuesday in Brevard County after she roughed up and robbed someone she was partying with and threatened to arrest him, though she is not a law enforcement officer, according to an incident report.
Dawn Leigh Kravis, 31, of the 1000 block of Roseland Road, Sebastian, was charged with robbery with no weapon, kidnapping and false imprisonment of an adult and fraudulently impersonating a law enforcement officer in the commission of a felony. She was being held at the Brevard County Detention Center in lieu of $48,000 bail.
A 53-year-old man who lives in the 9100 block of U.S. 1, Micco, called the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office about 6 a.m. Saturday and said Kravis had robbed him, the report said. He told deputies he had been partying most of Friday and early Saturday with Kravis and another woman, the report said.
When Kravis was told to leave his home, she threatened to have him and the other woman arrested, the report said. Kravis tackled the man and pushed him out of the front door while stealing his wallet, which had $200 cash, and his cell phone, the report said. She sped away in a vehicle, the man told deputies.
With the help of deputies in Indian River County, the man led them to Kravis’ home, the report said. Brevard County deputies interviewed Kravis later and took her into custody.
