Escambia County, FL (BuzzReport) – Early Thursday morning, deputies with the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office (ECSO) responded to a report of a lewd act near a school bus stop on Milestone Boulevard. The incident was reportedly witnessed by a juvenile and their mother.

Authorities identified the suspect as 36-year-old Errice Lewis Rutledge. Deputies located Rutledge shortly afterward entering a thrift store on Nine Mile Road, where he was taken into custody without incident.

Rutledge faces charges of indecent exposure and lewd and lascivious behavior in the presence of a victim under the age of 16. Both charges are felonies, compounded by a previous arrest and conviction in December 2025 for a similar offense.

The ECSO commended the quick response and coordination of deputies, including the SRO Unit, for ensuring public safety.

No further information about the ongoing investigation or potential court dates was released at this time.
