Jamestown – On Thursday January 11, at approximately 7:06pm, Jamestown Police Officers
were dispatched to a residence in northwest Jamestown, on a report of an intoxicated male
screaming and breaking things inside a residence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other family members were inside and were concerned, as they reported multiple weapons were also inside the residence. Officers arrived and were able to calm the intoxicated male using de-escalation techniques. Officers left the residence, as the male had calmed down, appeared rational, and agreed to remain calm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Officers were called back to the residence a short time later, as the male became irrational and
self-injurious. The male began threatening officers and stated he wanted to fight officers.
Mental Health services were offered and utilized by the intoxicated male, while officers
continued to use de-escalation techniques. A safety plan was developed and implemented for the
intoxicated male, by a mental health professional. The intoxicated male voluntarily left the
residence as part of the safety plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At 10:41pm , Officers were dispatched to the Corner Bar, as a bartender was asking for Police
assistance in dealing with a confrontational patron. Upon arrival, officers were requested to
remove the intoxicated patron from the bar, as the bar staff did not want him there. Officers
recognized the confrontational patron as the same individual who had been involved in the
earlier incident in northwest Jamestown. The male clearly disregarded his safety plan and was
very confrontational. The male was advised to leave the bar numerous times by officers, but he
refused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At 10:54 pm, Officers placed the intoxicated male under arrest for Criminal Trespassing. The
male subject actively resisted officers. Officers had to use physical force to take the intoxicated
male into custody. As the subject fought with officers, one officer and the arrested party
sustained minor injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The male suspect was identified as 45-year-old Justin James Simmons of Jamestown. Simmons
was arrested on suspicion of Criminal Trespassing and Preventing Arrest. Due to his
intoxication, behavior, and injuries, Simmons was transported to Jamestown Regional Medical
Center for medical evaluation. After the evaluation was complete, Simmons was taken to
Stutsman County Corrections for further processing of the criminal charges he was arrested on.
The injured Jamestown Police Officer did not require medical treatment for his injuries, at this
time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
