🚨 SNEAKING DRUGS INTO JAIL?

Reagan Paige Cox (30) was arrested in Rockledge early July 3rd — and it's not what she was carrying ON her that's the problem. It's what she was trying to bring IN.

Cox is charged with introducing controlled substances into a county detention facility — in other words, trying to smuggle drugs past the jailhouse doors. She also picked up resisting arrest, possession charges, and paraphernalia.

The booking photo says it all.

Name: Reagan Paige Cox (30)
Agency: Rockledge Police Department
Charges: Introduce Controlled Substance Into Detention Facility, Resist LEO, Possession of Controlled Substance, Drug Paraphernalia

All suspects presumed innocent until proven guilty.

🚨 I-95: 100+ MPH... FOR WHAT?

A 22-year-old woman from Hollywood was clocked doing over 100 MPH on I-95 in Brevard County early Friday morning — but it was the JULY 4TH WEEKEND, and FHP was out in full force.

Christina Rose Sanchez (22) now gets to spend her holiday weekend in jail instead of anywhere she was speeding to.

Name: Christina Rose Sanchez (22)
Agency: FHP – Cocoa

At 100+ MPH, that's not driving — that's a missile with a license plate.

🚨 BLUE LASER STRIKES SHERIFF'S HELICOPTER

A Pinellas County Sheriff's Office chopper was assisting Clearwater PD early Friday when a high-powered blue laser lit up the cockpit — twice.

They found Eric Gelman, 62, and recovered the laser device. He was booked for felony Misuse of a Laser Lighting Device.
