A convicted child killer wanted by authorities in Ohio was arrested in Florida after being found among spring breakers at a busy beach.
Anthony Grove, 45, was taken into custody at Daytona Beach during a law enforcement sweep aimed at controlling disorderly spring break crowds.
Grove was reportedly sitting near another individual drinking from an open container when officers approached.
He was wanted in Ohio for allegedly violating parole conditions, with officials previously warning he should be considered “dangerous and possibly armed.”
Bodycam footage from the arrest shows Chief Deputy Brian Henderson questioning Grove about the case that led to his warrant.
Grove initially “played it real cool” but later admitted he was wanted in connection with an incident involving his child.
He is now facing additional charges, including failure to register as a convicted felon in Florida and two counts of drug possession.
Grove remains in custody and is expected to be extradited to Ohio.
