Resisting arrest
About 11 p.m. on June 14, Officer Dick Scott responded to 141 Rumford St. to assist officers looking for someone with a knife. Neighbors told the police they’d heard people moving around inside the apartment next door and said they believed the former tenants had moved out, according to Scott’s report.
Officers secured the area and told whoever was inside the unit to come out. The first man, whom the police did not name, had a loaded spring knife in his shorts pocket, the police said. Dustin Calley, 18, of Concord emerged from the house next, and both men were placed in Scott’s cruiser and brought to the station.
“During this transport Calley became extremely belligerent, yelling and making accusations that I had hit him even though I hadn’t,” Scott wrote. “At one point Calley tried to hit (his friend) in the head with his head so that they could blame me for the injury.”
Calley, who was shirtless in his mug shot, was separated from other suspects in the holding area “because of his behavior and his non compliancy.” When his handcuffs were taken off, he started hitting and kicking the walls, Scott wrote.
Calley was charged with criminal trespass, resisting arrest, simple assault and possession of alcohol. Bail was set at $10,000 cash.
Playing chicken
Shortly after midnight on June 9, Officer Almendin Dzelic was dispatched to Fisherville Road for a report of a pedestrian carrying a 12-pack of beer and wandering in and out of traffic.
On scene, Dzelic met a witness who said he was driving southbound when a man stepped out into traffic and started waving his arms at him. The driver told the police he backed his truck up to watch the man, then saw him throw the 12-pack in a bush.
Up the road, Dzelic made contact with 43-year-old Kevin Harrington of Manchester.
Harrington told the police he’d been drinking and playing poker all day and was walking home to Manchester, Dzelic wrote, noting Harrington smelled strongly of alcohol and had glassy, bloodshot eyes.
Asked why he littered the beer cans, Harrington said he didn’t want to carry them anymore, Dzelic wrote. He was arrested for disorderly conduct and littering and “became very belligerent and started calling me names,” Dzelic said.
Harrington was uncooperative during booking, Dzelic wrote, and at one point “pulled his shorts down and turned around and exposed his buttocks to me, stating ‘kiss my a–.’ ”
Bail was set at $250 cash.
