BREACH OF PEACE, DRINKING IN PUBLIC — On Oct. 24 at 5 p.m., police were called to 200 Main Street on the report of a suspicious person. The responding officer recognized James A. Reynolds, 58, of Pomeroy Place, the report says, as the same man who was loitering earlier that evening in Metro Plaza and had gotten a ticket for doing so as he had a half-empty 24-ounce Natural Ice can and another full can in a bag.
He was sitting on a bench, eating wings and began yelling expletives “at the top of his lungs” at officers, with 15 people in the area watching him, police say. His response to police was, “you know who I am,” the report indicates. A pat-down revealed a nipper of whiskey in Reynolds’ pocket.
