A wanted man who turned himself in at the Hagåtña precinct reportedly assaulted a police officer and defecated concealed chewing tobacco while in the precinct, according to court documents.

A bench warrant was issued in July for the arrest of William Bay Flanagan, 26. Flanagan was charged Aug. 20 with assault against a peace officer as a third-degree felony, as well as promoting prison contraband, disorderly conduct and public drunkenness.

Flanagan was on pre-trial release for a separate case when he came to the Hagåtña precinct on Aug. 19, according to a magistrate’s complaint filed in the Superior Court of Guam.
