Three south county men were arrested Monday on charges ranging from trespassing to throwing deadly missiles, according to probable cause reports from the Suwannee County Jail.

The reports allege that 20-year-old Ryan Douglas Kolovitz, 21-year-old Randy Lee Pring and 22-year-old Elijah Lawrence Wilson took several bricks from an abandoned house on 39th Drive around 11:10 p.m. Sunday night. Kolovitz, of 22049 133rd Lane, O'Brien, reportedly drove the three to 288th Terrace. Kolovitz, along with Pring, of 9143 240th Street, O'Brien, and Wilson, of 4347 284th Street, allegedly walked to a driveway with Pring and Wilson carrying bricks. Reports allege that Kolovitz stood watch at the driveway while the other two walked into the yard and threw one brick through the window of a truck and two through the window of a camper. The three then reportedly drove from the scene.

About 20 minutes later, deputies were called to a residence at 4100 288th Street. Once there, it was determined that a brick had been thrown through the rear window of a van and into a bedroom window at the residence. A report by deputy Jake Brooks indicated the bricks were similar to the ones collected from the previous scene. Brooks further reported that photographs of shoe patterns near a set of tire tracks in the driveway match those of the defendants.

The three were later arrested around 2 a.m. Monday by deputy Kyle Descarreaux after a caller advised dispatch that the three were trespassing at a residence on 129th Road. The caller told authorities that several shots were fired at him as he followed them. Sheriff's deputies stopped the vehicle shortly thereafter. Reports state that Kolovitz admitted going to the property on 129th Road and to firing a gun three times into the air near the caller. Pring allegedly said he wouldn't talk without a lawyer present and Wilson stated he was in the car and saw Kolovitz retreive a gun from his house and fire it in the direction of the caller three times.

The three were arrested and charged with trespassing, aggravated assault, five counts of throwing deadly missiles and felony criminal mischief.
