James Beaman

The name is Drunk. James Drunk.

Oct. 31, 1:06 a.m. Officer McKinney was on patrol when he saw a guy stumbling across the street. He was asked if he had too much to drink and he said yes. The guy didn’t have any form of identification and told McKinney his name and that he was 23. He refused a breathalyzer test and was arrested. While in the patrol car, the guy began yelling that he would have McKinney’s badge taken away. McKinney then found that he had been given a fake name and learned what the guy’s real name was.

What a harass hole

Looks like he has his handles full

No shoes. No shirt. No service

Nov. 2, 12:40 a.m. Sgt. Smith and Officer Kennedy arrived at a home on North Richmond Street in reference to a fight. When they arrived, they saw a guy standing outside bleeding from his head. He said another guy walked up without a shirt or shoes, hit him in the head with a coffee mug and began destroying things inside the house. The shirtless guy then emerged from the house appearing very intoxicated and was placed under arrest. EMS was called and Milledgeville police arrived on the scene. The case was turned over to the Milledgeville Police Department because the house was outside Georgia College police’s jurisdiction.

If you’re trying to steal, you’re doing it wrong

Nov. 2, 11:23 p.m. Officer Kennedy was dispatched to building 600 at the Village in reference to a damaged door. Kennedy met with the girl who called and was told that she left for the weekend and returned to find her bedroom door had been damaged. There was a split near the locking device, making it appear as though the door was forced open. The girl said she had looked through her belongings and did not believe anything to be missing. Her roommates had friends over, but she did not know who the friends were. The case has been turned over to investigations.

Bye bye, Vyvanse

Nov. 3, 10:08 a.m. Officer Ennis was called to West McIntosh Street in reference to missing medication.

The police have better things to do

I normally have bad balance when I’m drunk

Nov. 7, 1:49 a.m. Officer Kennedy made a traffic stop for a truck that had crossed over the center line several times. Kennedy could smell alcohol after approaching the truck and asked the driver to complete a field sobriety test. She commented that she doesn’t have good balance but consented to take the test.
