A man sent to state prison in 2012 for multiple burglaries was arrested July 8 in Flamingo Cay — a community located between Perico Island and the mainland — for similar crimes.
Kyle Dale, 32, of Bradenton Beach, was arrested by Manatee County sheriff’s deputies for burglary of an unoccupied dwelling and conveyances, motor vehicle theft and possessing identification belonging to another person without consent.
Dale allegedly confessed to MCSO investigators, saying he knew the homeowner, who also owned the boat on the canal behind the house.
MCSO deputies were called to the scene at about 1 p.m. after one of the victims and a witness detained Dale at the victim’s home in the 10400 block of Spoonbill Road West.
Dale told deputies he entered a private dwelling, vessel and vehicle midday July 6 and stole multiple items, including personal paperwork, passports, nautical charts, infrared guns, flares, boat manuals, books and men’s clothing. He took some of the stolen items to his home in Bradenton Beach, according to the MCSO report.
The report also states Dale stayed at the residence and drove the homeowner’s vehicles for two days without permission.
Dale was transported to the Manatee County jail, where he was released after posting $13,500 bond.
In four combined 2011 cases, Dale was sentenced to 59.175 months in prison after convictions for possessing drugs, dealing in stolen property and burglaries from vehicles in the 200 block of 17th Street North of Bradenton Beach and the 5400 block of Marina Drive in Holmes Beach.
Dale was released from prison in November 2015, according to online records.
His arraignment for the July arrest is set for 9 a.m. Friday, Aug. 2, in the Manatee County Judicial Center, 1051 Manatee Ave. W., Bradenton.
This POS has been a menace since he was a juvenile. Hopefully he’ll be sent back to where he belongs. Obviously he can’t be free.
