WHILE EN ROUTE, DISPATCH ADVISED ME THAT A MALE SUBJECT WAS INSIDE THE BAR AND WAS REFUSING TO LEAVE. UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT, MR. DAVID BUCHANAN, WHO WAS SEATED AT THE BAR.

BUCHANAN PROVIDED ME WITH HIS DRIVERS LICENSE AT WHICH TIME HE WAS CHECKED FOR WANTS OR WARRANTS THROUGH TELETYPE. I ASKED MR BUCHANAN WHY HE WANTED ME TO TAKE HIM TO JAIL TO WHICH HE STATED HE WAS NOT GOING TO LEAVE THE BAR. MR BUCHANAN WAS LOUD AND ARGUING WITH OTHER PATRONS IN MY PRESENCE AND WAS CAUSING A DISTURBANCE. I THEN MADE CONTACT WITH MS COREY MALIN, THE COMPLAINANT, WHO IS A BARTENDER AT MAC'S PLACE. SHE STATED THAT SHE HAD ASKED MR BUCHANAN TO LEAVE SEVERAL TIMES; HOWEVER, HE REFUSED, STATING HE WAS GOING TO FINISH HIS BEER.

SWORN WRITTEN STATEMENTS WERE OBTAINED FROM BOTH WITNESSES AND THE COMPLAINANT. THE STATEMENTS WERE LATER TURNED IN TO RECORDS.
