Deputies from the Levy County Sheriff’s Office, Alachua
County Sheriff’s Office and officers from the Gainesville Police Department
combined efforts to arrest Qua’dre Tyremetris Dixon (8-26-2000) for two vehicle
burglaries that occurred in Levy County on June 11, 2018. A handgun and other miscellaneous personal
property was stolen from the victims in these cases.
The investigation came together when LCSO Investigator
Justin Douglas located one of Dixon’s fingerprints at one of the crime
scenes. Deputies at the Alachua County
Sheriff’s Office positively matched the print to Dixon.
On June 14, 2018, Gainesville Police Officers took Dixon into
custody as part of another investigation.
Investigator Douglas was able to interview Dixon at that time and
obtained additional evidence implicating Dixon in the two burglaries. Based on the testimony of witnesses and the
physical evidence, Dixon was charged with two counts of Burglary, Grand Theft
of a Firearm and Petit Theft. A juvenile
pickup order was issued for Dixon and he was taken into custody and held at the
juvenile detention center awaiting trial.
On June 27, 2018 a petition was filed before the Courts in
Levy County requesting these charges be upgraded, changing them from Dixon
being charged as a juvenile to being charged as an adult. The request was
granted and Dixon has been formally charged. Dixon is now being held on a
combined bond of $110,000.00.
