Campana was most recently arrested on Dec. 18 on suspicion of attempted robbery at Mullinax Ford, a car dealership in central Florida, and was released on bond, police told the station.
According to WOFL, records show Campana was first arrested on September 18, 2011, when he was 18 years old. The department said the majority of recorded arrests were for robbery.
Police humorously explained Campana's arrest. facebook:
“It was the night before Christmas Eve, and a criminal named Kevin was being frowned upon all over town.
He broke into Hibiscus with no shoes on and stole a customer's car. It's truly a Christmas treat.
But Kevin's criminal activities didn't stop there; he drove like a man with no money to spare.
He tried to escape through alleyways and alleys, but Edgewater's elite were in perfect shape.
He thought he could pass, but couldn't get far when he encountered a K-9 unit head-on in his car.
He had trouble getting into a car and started crying, thinking that maybe, just maybe, he could make it.
Well, Kevin was wrong. We charged him that day with robbery, theft, and fleeing a dispute.
This is a notice from EPD staff.
Don't commit crimes and don't try to escape!
Merry Christmas everyone, and a warning to criminals, don't make us work on holiday mornings.
We'll get you, we'll stop you, we always win, no one escapes the footsteps of the law in Edgewater!
