GP Police Lodged Intoxicated Man for Resisting Arrest after Red Lion Inn Disturbance
Grants Pass Police were dispatched to an incident at the Red Lion Inn where an intoxicated man was acting aggressively.
A housekeeper from the 1880 NW 6th Street called 911 to report a drunk guest was hitting a door, screaming, and yelling for the cops to be called. He wouldn't leave the scene and was being verbally aggressive with staff and other guests.
The suspect was described as wearing brown shorts, but no shirt or shoes. Officers arrived and identified him as Michael Douthitt. He was trespassed from the inn and removed from the property. Law enforcement provided Douthitt an opportunity to organize accommodations for himself, but his efforts were unsuccessful.
Officers proceeded to take Douthitt into custody on account of his public intoxication, but he resisted. Ankle restraints and a wrap were both applied to him, and he was transported to jail. He was lodged on the lone charge of Resisting Arrest.
