A hat left at the scene led detectives to a man accused of robbing multiple Publix stores in Central Florida in the last two months.

Sheriff's Office Lt. Parks Duncan said investigators believe Buckner worked with two other people they have identified, but are not naming at this time. Duncan said a fourth person could have also been involved in the armed robberies at a Winter Park Publix on Feb. 28 and a DeLand Publix on March 20.

Detectives have linked Buckner to the Sand Lake Road and the DeLand robberies, but are hoping members of the public will provide additional information that will lead to more arrests.

"We need additional information, concrete information," Demings said. "More arrests are certainly going to occur in the very near future."

Demings highlighted Buckner's past at a news conference Wednesday evening.

"Obviously he was involved in a number of things. He has an extensive drug history," Demings said. "We believe that he was doing and dealing drugs in this community."

Court records show Buckner has been arrested 59 times in Orlando and Orange County.

Buckner spent seven years in jail and was released in April 2013, Duncan said.

Detectives said they want Orange County citizens to know they have spent countless hours working on solving a string of robberies through Central Florida.

"Those who may be contemplating robbery in this community, I want them to understand that we are coming after them next," Demings said. "We want to put our citizens at ease."

The Sheriff's Office worked with federal, state and local law enforcement officials to find Buckner, Demings said.

A Crimeline award of $10,000 is still available to the person or persons providing information that leads to the arrest of the additional suspects.
