A 45-year-old Carson City man, who is an inmate in the Carson City Detention Center, was booked Tuesday on a gross misdemeanor charge of causing damage to his cell, a Carson City sheriff’s deputy said.
According to the arrest report, the jail deputy observed the man repeatedly cause damage to the food port of his cell using his hands. He was instructed multiple times to get down from the food port, but instead, he broke off a portion of the ceiling in the corner of the cell. Bail: $2,500.
In other arrests, a 63-year-old Dayton man was arrested Tuesday, 1:24 p.m. in the 1500 block of College Parkway on a misdemeanor DUI charge. According to the arrest report, a deputy was dispatched to a bank in the 1500 block of East College Parkway. While responding, dispatch advised a gray sedan ran over four different curbs in the parking lot and was stopped in the driveway with the driver hunched over the steering wheel.
The officer went to the driver side window and noticed the man breathing with his eyes closed and had a strong odor of alcoholic beverage coming from him. The officer asked the man if he was OK. The driver opened his eyes and looked puzzled at the officer asking questions, the arrest report states.
The officer asked the man if he had been drinking. The driver told the deputy he drank “about a quarter of vodka,” the arrest report states. The man was asked if he could step outside the vehicle and participate in standardized field sobriety tests. The man agreed with the officer noticing six clues of impairment. He was taken into custody and submitted to two evidentiary breath samples, each registering .276. Bail: $1,137.
