PETER JOSEPHSON HAWXHURST, APPELLANT,

v.

THE STATE OF FLORIDA, APPELLEE

EMAS, J.

Peter Hawxhurst entered a plea of nolo contendere to the charge of possession of cocaine, expressly reserving the right to appeal the dispositive order of the trial court denying his motion to suppress.1 We hold that there was no error in the trial court’s denial of the motion to suppress, as there was probable cause to arrest Hawxhurst for the crime of criminal mischief.

Generally, a police officer may make a warrantless misdemeanor arrest only if it is committed in the presence of the officer. See § 901.15(1), Fla. Stat. (2014). However, there are a number of statutory exceptions, one of which permits a warrantless misdemeanor arrest when the officer has probable cause to believe the defendant has committed the offense of criminal mischief, even if it was not committed in the presence of the officer. See § 901.15(9)(b) (providing that a “law enforcement officer may arrest a person without a warrant when: ... [tjhere is probable cause to believe that the person has committed ... [a]n act of criminal mischief or a graffiti-related offense as described in section 806.13”).

Although the officer testified that he arrested Hawxhurst based upon probable cause to believe Hawxhurst committed a violation of a domestic violence injunction,2 the very same facts upon which the officer relied (and upon which the trial court based its determination) established probable cause to arrest Hawxhurst for criminal mischief. In the context of a motion to suppress, the trial court’s determination of historical facts are accorded a presumption of correctness, which we review under a standard of competent, substantial evidence, interpreting the evidence and reasonable inferences in a manner most favorable to sustaining the trial court’s ruling. Nelson v. Stale, 850 So.2d 514, 521 (Fla.2003); Pagan v. State, 830 So.2d 792, 806 (Fla.2002); Connor v. State, 803 So.2d 598, 608 (Fla.2001).

By contrast, we review de novo the trial court’s determination of whether those historical facts constitute probable cause. Ornelas v. United States, 517 U.S. 690, 696-97, 116 S.Ct. 1657, 134 L.Ed.2d 911 (1996); Pagan, 830 So.2d at 806. Moreover, the concept of probable cause is grounded upon a standard of objective reasonableness. Ornelas, 517 U.S. at 696,116 S.Ct. 1657 (noting that “[t]he principal components of a determination of reasonable suspicion or probable cause will be the events which occurred leading up to the stop or search, and then the decision whether these historical facts, viewed from the standpoint of an objectively reasonable police officer, amount to reasonable suspicion or to probable cause”) (emphasis add*1014ed). Therefore, a police officer’s subjective belief regarding the existence or nonexistence of probable cause for a warrant-less arrest is neither dispositive of, nor generally relevant to, this issue. See e.g., Thomas v. State, 395 So.2d 280, 281 (Fla. 3d DCA 1981) (holding that the established facts supported a determination of probable cause to arrest defendant for burglary “notwithstanding the officers’ mistaken and contrary belief’ that probable cause did not exist for that offense). See also Davison v. State, 15 So.3d 34 (Fla. 1st DCA 2009) (holding that the stop of a vehicle was valid notwithstanding officer’s mistaken belief that defendant committed violation of a particular traffic law, where facts established probable cause to believe defendant committed violation of a different traffic law); Jackson v. State, 660 So.2d 312 (Fla. 2d DCA 1995) (holding that the stop of a vehicle could not be justified on officer’s mistaken belief that traffic laws prohibited driving a vehicle with a broken rear window).

Thus, even if we were to conclude the officer did not have probable cause to arrest Hawxhurst for violation of a domestic violence injunction (a question we do not reach3), we hold the arrest was nevertheless valid as it was supported by probable cause to believe Hawxhurst committed the offense of criminal mischief. See Thomas, 395 So.2d at 280-81 (noting that “[wjhere, by objective standards, probable cause to arrest for a certain offense exists, the validity of an arrest does not turn on the fact that an arrest was effected on another charge”). See also D.S. v. State, 122 So.3d 482 (Fla. 3d DCA 2013); Freeman v. State, 909 So.2d 965 (Fla. 3d DCA 2005); Moss v. State, 512 So.2d 328 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987).

Because we affirm on this basis, we do not address the merits of the State’s cross-appeal.

Appeal affirmed. Cross-appeal dismissed as moot.
