TRAVERSE CITY, MI -- Traverse City Manager Jered Ottenwess could barely stand from apparent drunkenness when authorities came to his home, and in the minutes afterward, he threatened to kill two officers amid erratic and violent behavior, a police report shows.

Jered Ottenwess, 36, was arraigned Friday, Feb. 27, in Grand Traverse County District court on four misdemeanors that included two counts of domestic assault and two counts of attempted assault/resisting and obstructing an officer.

The police report, released by the Grand Traverse County prosecutor's office through a Freedom of Information Act request, details several minutes of erratic behavior by Ottenwess after police came to his house Feb. 16 because of a 911 call.

Ottenwess, after cutting his hand on a laundry basket and running through his yard with bare feet and no coat, was taken to the hospital to be checked. Tests showed a blood-alcohol of 0.39, nearly five times over the legal driving limit.

Police went to Ottenwess' house after his mother called 911 to say he was tearing up part of the house.

When they arrived, one officer noted: "It was my observation that Jered was extremely intoxicated and could barely stand up. I asked Jered to sit on the bed so he did not fall over and he was looking at me with a 1000-mile stare."

What followed was a series of profanities lobbed at the two officers, moments of crying and loud laughing and the jaunt through the yard.

"Jered was laughing extremely loud and making gestures as if it was a game," an officer wrote. "Jered turned and faced us with clenched fists."

The officers managed to get handcuffs on Ottenwess and into an ambulance, where he made statements that he was going to "(expletive) kill" one of the officers.

At the hospital, Ottenwess continued to struggle with hospital staff and needed to be placed in restraints.

Ottenwess' wife told investigators that he had been drinking heavily since April.

"She said every weekend Jered starts drinking on Friday, does not eat, but continues drinking until he passes out sometime Sunday," an investigator wrote. "Mrs. Ottenwess said Jered rarely drinks during the week but every weekend he drinks until he passes out."
