Three additional charges were filed this morning on Vincent Joseph Robusto (03/03/83) after a July search warrant lead to his arrest. On July 23, Vincent Robusto was located inside a home on Ohara Drive in Port Charlotte with a missing juvenile from Dilley, Texas.
The juvenile’s phone was pinged at 18541 Ohara Drive which is when Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office was contacted. Once on scene, deputies knocked on the door and observed a man run to the back room, refusing to open the door or acknowledge the deputies’ presence. While speaking with the juvenile, members learned that she was attempting to open the door but was held back by Robusto and told to stay quiet.
After obtaining a search warrant for the VRBO vacation rental, Vincent Joseph Robusto was in possession of eight rounds of ammunition which were located inside a magazine of a semi-automatic handgun and had been communicating with the 15-year-old via social media apps.

- Lewd and Lascivious Battery
