A local man holding a paint bucket and roller was arrested after a brief foot chase with an officer on Harris Street on Saturday.
John David Osborn, 21 of Eureka, was observed by a Eureka Police Department officer on routine patrol the evening of Independence Day. The unnamed officer spotted several as-yet unspecified “racial statements” written at the intersection of Harris and California Street, according to the EPD release, and noticed Osborn, who had fresh paint on his hands.
As the officer approached Osborn, he ran away and the officer gave chase, leading to his arrest shortly thereafter. The officer noted that the fresh paint on his hands matched the paint written in the street.
Osborn was charged with a hate crime as well as the violation of the terms of his probation. He was additionally charged with vandalism and possession of a narcotic smoking device.

This makes a little more sense now. We only use databases that we subscribe to for the mere fact that we know they are trying to keep our business. They will be updated more frequently and they will have a much much larger collection of criminal pasco county arrest search records.
