All Thomas Olenick Jr. can remember about the night of July 7 is taking four Xanax, an anti-anxiety drug, and then waking up on a comforter somewhere in Stagecoach Village, according to a Pasco County Sheriff's Office report.
Deputies, however, say they have pieced together through witnesses and surveillance video how Olenick spent at least part of that night: swimming naked.
Just after 11 p.m., according to reports, Olenick arrived at the Stagecoach Community Center at 3632 Mossy Oak Circle, broke in to the pool and plunged into its waters in the buff. He then removed four or five submerged pool lights from the sides of the pool.
A surveillance camera later captured Olenick on camera clad in a gray shirt, shorts and a black-and-white baseball cap. He hot-wired a golf cart parked outside the community center but wasn't able to get it through a locked gate, so he began ramming the cart into the gate before cutting several wires to open it, reports state.
He returned to the pool area, and according to the reports, stole a table and four chairs and took them to his home at 3422 Broken Bow Drive. Olenick's girlfriend called deputies when he started throwing the chairs. Then he left and drove the golf car into nearby woods.
Deputies couldn't find him. On Sunday, he turned himself in at the jail to face charges of burglary of a business, grand theft of a vehicle, grand theft and criminal mischief. He was being held Monday at the Land O' Lakes Jail with bail set at $10,150.
