Dylen Luke Shortt arrested for alleged lewd act in Target store and distributing obscene material to a minor

The Brevard County Sheriff’s Office has announced the arrest of Dylen Luke Shortt for what authorities call “another sick and disgusting criminal act”. BCSO alleges that Shortt lured two young girls close to his car and showed them pornographic pictures on his cell phone.

Authorities say the investigation started on October 18 of this year when deputies responded to a call for service in which an 11-year-old and a 12-year-old had reported that a male suspect had been following them on two separate days. The suspect had allegedly followed the girls near Canaveral City Park in Cape Canaveral.

BCSO alleges that the suspect showed the girls pornographic pictures on his phone on one occasion. Authorities say Shortt was out on bond at the time of the incident. He was previously arrested by the Titusville Police Department for allegedly masturbating in the women’s and girl’s clothing sections at a Titusville Target store.

BCSO says Shortt has now been charged with Distributing Obscene Material to a Minor. With a $15,000 bond, authorities say the suspect bonded out again.
