DISORDERLY CONDUCT
• Police responded to a report of disorderly conduct in the 8100 block of 185th Avenue East at approximately 7:48 p.m. Witnesses reported the 54-year-old male was drinking from what appeared to be a bottle containing alcohol and was staggering into traffic. The man appeared agitated and when a responding officer contacted him he stated, “I do not talk to the police.” The man refused to stop when police asked him to stop walking away. The man was arrested for disorderly conduct and struggled against officers while they were putting restraints on him. The man was transported to the Buckley Jail and booked for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.
DOMESTIC DISPUTE
• Police were dispatched at 7:13 a.m. May 23 to a Locust Avenue address regarding a verbal domestic dispute in progress. Police contacted a 35-year-old male and his 27-year-old wife at the residence and noticed the couple’s three young children there. The wife was in the master bedroom packing a suitcase and was sobbing. The 35-year-old male was raising his voice and police asked him repeatedly to lower it in order to have a conversation. The husband stated he was upset because after a night of partying and drinking, his wife said she was leaving him for her lesbian girlfriend. He stated this made him very upset and he did not want his children to be exposed to that type of lifesyle. The man said he still loves his wife and did not want her to leave. There was no evidence of a physical dispute. Officers waited as the wife packed up and then offered the husband a ride to the department so a friend could pick him up.
MALICIOUS MISCHIEF
• Police responded to a report of a vehicle prowl at 4:42 p.m. at 192nd Avenue East. The 37-year-old male victim stated he dropped his vehicle off in the parking lot of a store while he ran some errands between 2:30 and 6 p.m.. When he returned both front-door locks were punched and the stereo was stolen. The police discovered the driver’s-side door handle was pried. Store security was notified so security could look for any suspects.
