Reports taken from Nov. 14 to Nov. 16
Rough day?
Mount Pleasant police on Nov. 15 responded to a Snyder Circle apartment complex after receiving calls about a drunken man wearing only a shirt. Police found the man yelling on the second floor and arrested him. Due to his intoxication (and lack of clothes), police had difficulty identifying him until they contacted his ex-wife. Yikes, looks like Winnie the Pooh’s holidays are off to a rocky start.
Off the grid
North Charleston police on Nov. 16 noted a recent uptick in people illegally using “power receptacles” from local businesses to charge electrical devices. Officers arrested at least two people over the weekend for “theft of electrical current,” which if we’re honest, we didn’t know was a thing. Frankly, we’re shocked!
Movie night
A West Ashley man on Nov. 14 told Charleston police he received a mysterious charge on his debit card. Police determined the charge came from Maryland for two tickets to the movie Black Phone 2. The man’s bank canceled the charge. We only hope the cancellation made it in time to save that Maryland couple from watching that bad of a movie.
Just get a box or something
A North Charleston arrest on Nov. 14 apparently required every tool at city police’s disposal. According to a report, it seems that a man resisted officers after being handcuffed for public intoxication. When he started kicking officers, he was restrained with leg cuffs. When he started spitting at officers, they used a spit guard. What’s next, guys? A kennel?
