PINELLAS COUNTY – Deputies assigned to the Patrol Operations Bureau have arrested an off-duty Clearwater Police Officer on multiple charges.

On January 27, 2022 at approximately 2:00 a.m., deputies responded to a residence located in Dunedin, after being dispatched to a domestic in progress.

Once on-scene, deputies made contact with 42-year-old Jason Lambe outside of the residence. Lambe was taken into custody after refusing verbal commands and resisting deputies.

Deputies then made contact with the 43-year-old female victim. The victim reported to deputies she and Lambe were previously dating, but not in a current relationship.

According to deputies, the victim stated Lambe arrived at her residence uninvited on January 23, 2022, confiscated her cell phone and refused to allow her to leave the residence. For multiple days, Lambe refused to allow the victim to leave her residence, battered her, and threatened to kill her and then himself. The victim sustained multiple minor injuries, but did not require medical attention.

Lambe was arrested for Domestic Battery, False Imprisonment, Resisting an Officer Without Violence, and Assault on a Law Enforcement Officer. Lambe was transported to the Pinellas County Jail without incident.

The investigation continues.
