Officials: Man threatens to call police on police

CHILLICOTHE – Police arrested a man who told officers he was going to call the police on them following a report of an attempted entry at Hopetown Village on Tuesday night.

According to the Chillicothe Police Department, an officer was dispatched to the residential facility on a report of a man "pounding on the door" before leaving as an employee approached him.

When the officer arrived, an employee said a white male wearing a black T-shirt and jeans began kicking one of the facility's back doors and cracked the glass in several places around 10:15 p.m. before disappearing around the corner of the building.

As police were investigating the incident, they were told the suspect was lying on the floor in between the front doors.

The suspect was identified as Isaiah M. Turner, 26, who, according to the police report, "looked up at both officers and just smiled."

When Turner was advised he was under arrest, he is alleged to have pulled away from both officers, who reported a struggle ensued before he was placed in handcuffs.

"The subject was told several times that he was under arrest and to stop resisting during the struggle," according to the police report. "The subject then refused to stand."

Both officers reported they attempted to help Turner up several times as he continued to struggle, and they said had to drag him to the patrol car before he finally began walking on his own.

"The subject told officers that he was going to call the police if they did not stop attacking him," the report said.

Police reported Turner had a strong odor of alcohol on his breath, slurred speech and glassy eyes.

Turner was arrested and charged with one count each of disorderly conduct intoxication, resisting arrest, criminal mischief and criminal trespass.
