  • Tuesday, December 12, 2023

Officers were dispatched to Hamilton Inn at 2717 Rossville Blvd. where two people were refusing to leave. Security personnel took the officers to a room where there was a man and woman. The man appeared to be intoxicated as the smell of alcohol was coming from him and he swayed while standing. The officer explained to them management wanted them to leave the property. While in the room, the man tried to take with him an open container of beer after it was explained to him that he could not. The man and woman said they were waiting for their Lyft to arrive and officers asked them to start collecting their belongings and take them downstairs while they waited for their ride. The man said they had made some arrangements with the manager of the motel about leaving some items behind and picking them up the next day. An officer spoke with the manager and she said the couple never paid for their stay and were requested to be completely moved out by 10 p.m. the day before. She wanted them trespassed for theft of services. Officers explained to the man and woman they needed to grab all their belongings and were not allowed back on the property and were trespassed. They repeatedly ignored lawful commands to gather their belongings and leave the property, even after police had assisted them with moving their things. The open container of beer was taken from the man after police saw it inside his jacket pocket. While in the parking lot, the man was belligerent and attempted to engage in verbal disorders with the security guard. He made threats about vandalizing the security guard's vehicle. Police found out Lyft had never been called. Officers helped the couple move their belongings off the property and onto the public sidewalk. Police explained again they were not allowed back.
