Nate Fancher, the principal of St. Cloud High School, was detained on Tuesday and charged with criminal mischief in relation to a car keying incident that happened last Thursday in a Publix parking lot, according to St. Cloud Police.
St. Cloud Police were called to the Publix on Old Canoe Creek Rd and 13th Street after a victim reported that someone had “keyed” the entire side of her car, according to an arrest affidavit given to Positively Osceola.
A middle-aged white male wearing a black jacket, tan jeans, and a shaven head approached the victim’s vehicle in the parking lot, as seen on surveillance footage of the area.
The man is seen on camera shifting his shopping bag from his left to his right hand before turning to face the car’s passenger side.
The man is then captured on camera walking the entire length of the car’s passenger side while dragging his left arm behind him.
According to the arrest document, the man then appeared to be viewing the side of the automobile again before turning around and eventually walking away from the camera.
He later returned. Over $3000 has been assessed as the cost of the vehicle’s damage.
