According to the report, Rodriguez dragged the victim by her hair into the living room, pushed her onto the sofa, and grabbed her by the neck. When the victim attempted to call 911, he forcibly took her phone, preventing her from contacting authorities, before fleeing with her iPhone.
Detectives later located Rodriguez at his residence, where he was taken into custody without further incident. The Miami Springs Police Department extends special thanks to the Hialeah PD CRT for their assistance in the arrest.
