2:33 a.m., Main Street at Lemon Avenue
Suspicious incident: It’s the age-old story of boy meets girls, boy hands girls his cell phone to exchange Instagram handles, girls walk away with boy’s phone.
The complainant flagged down an officer on patrol to report he had met a group of females outside a Main Street bar and, while speaking with them, handed over his phone in hopes of making a connection. He said the females began to walk away and he asked for his phone back. They handed him a phone, he said, which was not his, and he lost sight of the subject to whom he handed his phone.
While speaking with the complainant, the owner of the wrong phone arrived and retrieved the device. Alas, the young man’s phone remained missing and the location feature was not activated. The two canvassed the area but were unable to locate the group. The complainant said he understands that, because he handed over the phone voluntarily, the threshold of theft had not been met.
The officer’s encounter, however, was not over. During the interaction with the complainant, his friend was detained for acting in a disorderly fashion. With clenched fists, he would declare to passersby and bystanders “I’ll beat your (euphemism for posterior)” and “What are you going to do about it?” Do about what, however, was not determined.
Because of his aggressive behavior, the friend was cuffed and held at bay until the investigation was concluded. The friend, however, continued to shout obscenities and “unachievable threats,” the nature of which were not disclosed in the incident report. Perhaps they included shoving objects in places where they could not possibly fit.
Once the investigation was complete, the cuffs were removed and the two men left the scene.
12:32 p.m., SPD Headquarters
Suspicious incident: A disoriented man reported to the front desk at SPD that a night of drinking and a subsequent blackout was suspicious in nature. He stated that at about 6:30 p.m. the night before he began to drink with friends at a downtown hotel bar, where he consumed one daiquiri and one beer. The then went to a nearby bar on Palm Avenue where he drank one espresso martini and one beer. From there, the went to a Main Street bar where he had one beer, and that is the extent of his memory.
Although evidence apparently suggested otherwise, he said he did not recall returning home, vomiting in his house, waking up in the living room and going to his bedroom. He said he believes he was drugged with an unknown narcotic as consuming two cocktails and three beers (that he knows about) does not typically result in that physical response.
The complainant said he did not wish to have an investigation into his night of mystery but did wish to file a report.
6:59 a.m., 700 block of Cohen Way
Disturbance: An officer encountered a male subject standing in the hallway of an apartment building while responding to a complaint about a disturbance. He told the officer the complainant, a woman, was a satanist who had attacked both himself and his wife. As it turns out, the man isn’t married and has been the cause of multiple calls to this location because of his erratic behavior.
He proceeded on an unintelligible rant regarding sexual encounters with which he was a participant. The complainant, who is part of the office staff of the community, said she investigated yelling in the hallway. After telling him to be quiet, she said the subject ran toward her while telling her that she’s the devil and that “they” are coming for her. Fearing for her safety, she backed into her apartment and closed the door as the man tried to enter. He proceeded to kick the door while telling her that she might as well kill herself because he was coming for her.
A third-party witness confirmed the woman’s account of the sequence of events.
A fellow officer took the man into protective custody under the Baker Act but, according to a supplemental report, probable cause existed to charge the subject with simple assault.
