Cocoa Beach Police received a complaint on May 29 that an individual, later identified as Manning, used a recording device to take inappropriate videos of an unsuspecting female who was shopping at the surf shop. Manning was gone prior to police arrival.

A thorough canvass and initial investigation by Officer Bobby Strange provided information that Manning was a regular at a nearby bar. On June 10, an employee at the bar notified Cocoa Beach Police that Manning was inside their establishment.

Responding officers made contact with Manning and made a positive identification. A recording device was in Manning’s possession that was seized as possible evidence. The Criminal Investigations Division assumed the case and Detective Joe Smith obtained a search warrant for the recording device and Manning’s residence.
