Resisting an officer without violence. A 52-year-old man was arrested, and his burrito thrown away, after causing a disturbance while drunk at a local gas station.
Police report the man was consuming alcohol at the scene and yelling at customers, making them feel unwelcome. He refused to leave, so staff called police to trespass the defendant. Once spotted by police, the man tried to conceal an open beer behind his back and decline to stay where he was, proceeding instead to leave the parking lot of the gas station.
The police officer warned the man he would be detained if he didn't stop, but the man told him he was going to the store to get something to eat. After three warnings, he was arrested. He had with him one burrito and four cans of beer, all of which were disposed.

Police were dispatched to the area after calls regarding a suspicious vehicle stopped on the wrong side of the road. The officer woke the man up, eyeing the revolver on the passenger side floor, and asked him to step out of the vehicle. The man then told police what he had been up to and that he had more marijuana in the ammo can behind the driver's seat.

Loitering. A 37-year-old man was arrested for repeatedly knocking on his mother's rear sliding glass door, looking into her home and not leaving.
His mother told police she was afraid he was going to break the door and when police asked him about the incident, he said his mother was "trying to set him up." The officer on scene noticed a clean spot on the sliding door where "hands had appeared to be looking through" as well as a forehead mark on the glass.
The man had been picked up from Halifax Health earlier that day by his mother and given a backpack of clothing, knowing he was not welcome at her house.
