Battery on a law enforcement officer. Police arrested a 26-year-old Daytona Beach man after he was seen loitering behind several beachside businesses.

Police report that the man and his wife were found sleeping in a local park, which was closed due to the early morning hour. The man told police he didn't have an ID and provided them with a false name. He eventually told police he didn't want to tell them his real name because he had an open warrant.
He was taken to jail.
