Spence Phillips

A Shalimar area homeowner spotted a young man dressed all in black trying to break into her Masters Boulevard home with a crowbar this morning. She startled him and he ran from the scene carrying two large bags. A short time later, another homeowner on Country Club Road found a man inside his home placing items in two large bags. The intruder fled outside, then tried to break into a car at a neighbor’s house. OCSO deputies and investigators, along with a K9 Unit, arrived. A perimeter was set up and deputies spotted the individual coming out of another house. Although he ran he was quickly taken into custody. The suspect, identified as 22-year old Spence Phillips of Fort Walton Beach, had changed clothes, but was positively identified by the victims. Two large bags were found in nearby bushes. Phillips is currently charged with home invasion robbery, two counts of burglary, resisting arrest without violence, and criminal mischief.
