Woman's Explosive Encounter with Police Over Stolen Dogs Caught on Bodycam

A seemingly tranquil night in Flagler County, Florida, took a dramatic turn when deputies responded to a series of 911 calls. The caller, identified as 27-year-old Ebony Romanic, was agitated and upset, claiming her ex had stolen two of her dogs.

Bodycam footage reveals the escalating tension as deputies attempt to de-escalate the situation. Romanic repeatedly demands the officers retrieve her dogs, insisting it’s a life-or-death situation.

The situation deteriorates further when Romanic directs a barrage of insults and racial slurs at the officers. She accuses them of inaction and questions their competence. Despite their attempts to calm her down, Romanic’s anger intensifies.

The arrival of a supervisor does little to quell the situation. Romanic’s verbal assault continues, culminating in her slamming the door on the officers.

However, the encounter takes a dangerous turn when Romanic reappears, this time hurling rocks at the officers. The officers are forced to take action, arresting Romanic for her aggressive behavior.

Even after being handcuffed and placed in the back of the patrol car, Romanic remains volatile, continuing her verbal assault and making threats against the officers.

Romanic was subsequently booked on multiple charges, including assault on a law enforcement officer, misuse of 911, and resisting arrest. While two of the assault charges have been dropped, the remaining charges are still pending.
