Migrants accused of looting Florida hurricane victims: ‘Worst of the worst’

Florida CFO Jimmy Patronis joined ‘Fox & Friends’ to discuss how some Floridians are falling victim to looters and scammers after the recent hurricanes.

An Uber Eats driver in Florida with a hankering for a late-night snack was allegedly caught nibbling on a customer’s order – in front of them – leading to the driver reportedly spitting in the customer’s face.

According to an affidavit, obtained by Fox News’ affiliate, FOX 13, Alexsandra Del Valle Acosta Aguilar, 29, was spotted by an unidentified customer “removing food from the bag that she ordered” while outside the customer’s home in Davenport, Florida, on Sept. 12.

The unidentified woman inside the home spotted the Uber Eat’s driver and went to confront her, documents said.

As she moved to the entrance of her home, the woman spotted Aguilar holding up her ‘Happy Fall Y’all’ sign. When the victim grabbed the sign, she said the pair began arguing and Del Valle Acosta Aguilar spit in her face.

After being spat on, the victim said she covered herself with the sign and moved away from Aguilar.

Aguilar’s alleged rampage was far from over, with the Uber Eats driver reportedly stealing two $75 decorative pumpkins before driving away.

According to documents, the victim said she was not able to pick Del Valle Acosta Aguilar from a photo pack due to a brain injury that impacted her memorization ability. 

However, the victim described the suspect as a medium-built Hispanic female in her late 20s to early 30s with long black hair, matching the description of the suspect.

Investigators arrested Aguilar based on the victim’s statement, the suspect’s statement, and records from Uber Eats.
