A Tuesday afternoon at a Davenport convenience store ended in handcuffs for a Wisconsin man after a quick response from the Polk County Sheriff’s Office.
Around 2:32 p.m. on April 14, deputies received a call regarding a retail theft at a shop located on US 27, just a stone’s throw from the I-4 interchange.
Store employees reported that a white male suspect had fled the scene in a white Chevy Equinox. The vehicle was easily identifiable by its Wisconsin license plate.
Utilizing the department’s Real Time Crime Center, investigators quickly narrowed down the driver’s identity, flagging the suspect as 28-year-old Donovan Michael Hundertmark.

The search didn’t last long. When deputies caught up with the vehicle and placed Hundertmark under arrest, the suspect seemed caught off guard by the local law enforcement procedures. As the handcuffs clicked into place, Hundertmark reportedly exclaimed, “They don’t do this in Wisconsin!”
Despite his surprise, the arrest proceeded according to protocol. Hundertmark was transported to the Sheriff’s Processing Center, where he was officially charged with second-degree retail petit theft.
