Defendant was approached by four officers in the dark in a manner that indicated an investigatory stop was taking place. One officer drove his patrol car the wrong way on a one-way street and parked the car directly in front of defendant, pointing the car\u2019s spotlight on him and the woman he was with. Another officer approached defendant on foot in a manner that indicated a sense of urgency. That method of approach and show of authority were akin to the threatening presence of several officers, and this was a Fourth Amendment seizure. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.3dca.flcourts.org\/Opinions\/3D09-1346.pdf\">Hill v.
