when the officers explained that they needed to investigate everything properly she became rude and refused to give more details about what happened I know you guys both have been drinking okay it's

weapons knives drugs needles anything of that nature away and bring over here um no just have him stay here for me okay so um what's your first name what do you need your phone for I'd rather you not call anyone if that's what your intentions are okay we can hold off I don't really like when people call people when I'm conducting investigation I don't know who you're calling or who's going to be showing up what are you I'm saying you're going to wait sit the officer separated her from the man for questioning to make the situation easier to handle when they spoke to the man alone he admitted that the woman had been very drunk and had damaged the taxi door his story matched the taxi driver's explanation he also gave extra details that helped the officers understand what had happened his honesty was a big help in moving the investigation forward just let me know he's not free to leave you stand right there that's fine hello sir I'm Deputy del Mon County sherfield um what's going on man I know that the call came out with some damages to your car yep all right um you want to show me where we got she kicked the door mhm doesn't shut anymore it doesn't shut anymore is there any actual um you know visible signs of the the damage of which it wouldn't close though just had okay and is there a piece missing perhaps what is causing it not to shut I've got Mike C well she kicked it as hard as she could and now it's bent to the point where it won't slide shut okay where is it bent I just need to identify it well these are the rolls that it's rolling on I assume that's where it's been okay um you want to try and shut that and I can take a look control two one no no no I know I know I'm trying to I'm just trying to identify where the damages are that makes sense so I can notate that right um yeah I mean fact is that it worked perfectly fine before she got in the car and now it doesn't shut at all okay um I just uh I want to say these rails maybe or I can't tell it's dark out here she bent the [ __ ] out of something so it won't shut me I see can you not force it though please no no no I'm not trying to please Don't Force It s sir I'm not trying to make matter I'm trying to identify where it's broken so then I know how to do it by looking at it right you know cuz if I'm going to document this incident I need to know okay hey if you need to slide it back and forth I can do it for you okay sure okay there foot FR right there did she kick the outside by chance or was it only just the inside she was standing outside the vehicle and she kicked it while it was open okay I understood actually that's can you put your light on there for me she kicked here was is this a dent from her that you're aware of perhaps I don't believe that was from her okay so no obvious signs of Damages here just within the actual it's pretty obvious cuz it won't shut no I know so you know she didn't damage the out side of the door she damaged the mechanics of it when she she bent the material up top correct okay understood so knowing that do you want to press charges yeah I want to press charges okay um do you want to get statement forms you are okay with providing a sworn written statement yes okay and um just to have a better understanding um what caused her to act in a man before she even got in my car um less than about a mile to the Brass Monkey from here halfway through she stood up walked into the front seat and smacked my dashboard trying to get the music off and I told her she needed to sit down or else she could walk the rest of the way okay while the officers were working on the case another woman showed up she started arguing with the officers saying they were handling things unfairly it turned out she was defending the drunk woman her arrival made the situation even more chaotic and tense Patrol two Patrol one you don't know what's like really going on honest I was not if I were my Sergeant's over there figuring out I'm will to be honest with you thank God and yeah right um but I just tell you what applicable statute is it's criminal Dames on someone else's property it is arrest I know um I'm just telling you where we're at right now just being honest with you you've been honest with me so I appreciate that long with this statement though get away no I'm um would you just be willing to provide like your name and date of birth and phone number well wait see what is it sure you got your flashlight yes what is it write your name write your name do it uh this is what you wrote yeah I so you said it's just your information no no no you don't sign yet yet just put your address you have your glasses your name your phone number you don't have your GL probably I was crying you swear and airm him no not one when he was yeah no okay just go ahead and just complete that two control one my address yes ma'am all right thank done the officers tried to stay calm and manage the argument but the situation worsened finally they decided the best option was to take the drunk woman into custody got so you can see that when you go to close it here's like the security pin that the door is supposed to go around yes I saw it goes and it hits here it hits the actual met so it's bent in you can't tell what else other than you can say that the track something about the mechanical track system is now bent in where it will no longer allow the door to close cool all right um I'll have him go ask the value and then from there just go back he said that they just had the door fixed from something else and was $2,000 so that's a f uh now that's not that's not saying that we know that it's $2,000 for this we have no idea yeah so I would say you probably say you know you probably go less but I don't know like if they're saying it was $2,000 last time yeah why who are we to say it's not going to be $2,000 this time resell trash patr two Patrol one yes huh M for training yeah listen sir you mind if ask a couple questions I already know you already told my partner uh you know I was just over there talking to you know the female um how many times would you say she kick your door she kicked my door your or say h I don't know is so once one time one time okay cool and how much do you think it'll cost like give me an estimate well we just got it fixed and it was over $2,000 so I could imagine it be in the same ballpark okay okay um okay and at any point did it get verbal or physical like meaning did she make threats to you or did you ever make threats to her no no okay and then never got physical right like meaning like you didn't touched her or she touched you grabbed you punched you kicked you no none of that okay all right um and before she got out did you say anything to her before she got out yeah no no and after she got out after she got out she flipped me the bird mhm I believe I told her to get out of here [ __ ] okay and then that's when she kicked my door in okay cool all right thank you all right appreciate it sir how much did you say so he told me that for the around 2,000 cuz that's what he said last time at cost or some or other um I asked him if it got physical or verbal like threats and stuff he said no okay and then when she just stepped out she just kicked it and what you got do I'm probably going to jail there's CU if they're here for this long like they're talking about it what be honest with you they're talking about it we're trying to figure out which way this is going to go okay cuz at the end of the day whether it was not intentional to break anything do insurance like can we do like a car W like Insurance like it's not an accident it wasn't accident so how is it on an accident just to say I'm wondering no we're look at no it's [ __ ] taxi like you those those track systems are expensive to get ped notating that they're $2,000 okay well do you have $2,000 to fix the door yeah I give it to you okay no we're not going to go there well me I'm sure if it was your car and someone broke your door you wouldn't like it right okay so I think I think yeah exactly so so now insul you know I yeah like I'm not saying you're a bad person or anything I'm not indicating that but there's consequences to people's actions right I think we could both agree on that it's I was taught and raised that way since a little kid so you're not wrong okay I get it all right so stop worrying about me if I go to jail I go to jail so all right hear me out if he doesn't press charges nothing happens correct can I go talk to him no no [ __ ] no he's not absolutely the [ __ ] no last time you went over ,000 a little different when it's in your face okay well then maybe ask Joe to go offer him $1,000 not you cuz I don't think he wants to hear from you I don't think Joe wants to be a part of this Joe's a part of whether I want part of well do you want to go offer him $1,000 to not if it's legal and within the limits of the law they the officer says it's okay for me to do abolutely but going to go going to go interfere with an investigation for put myself in any Jeopardy I'm not do that is he allow who no it isn't matter no it isn't matter it's not happening I'm sorry because what's guarante whoever's talking to him are they like descal situations that we all do I understand like I'll pay for it can you he already said no said Joe can't go over there you can't go over there no we can go over there just got to play back can't have that in jail here you want me to give it to break it no you're fine I just didn't want you to break it probably

custody the driver's story and the man's honest statements were enough to prove what had happened the damaged taxi further proved her actions this situation showed how difficult it can be for officers to handle cases involving aggressive intoxicated people they not only had to deal with the woman's Behavior but also manage the interference of others all while staying professional for the taxi driver the incident wasn't just about the broken door it was about how unsafe and upset he felt during the encounter he was simply trying to do his job but ended up facing aggression and damage to his property his detailed account of what happened played a big role in helping the officers figure out the truth after completing their investigation the officers concluded that the female had engaged in disorderly conduct public intoxication damage to private property and simple battery subsequently the female was presented in court where the charges against her were formally addressed she was held accountable for her actions which included causing significant damage to the taxi and creating a public disturbance in addition to the legal consequences the court imposed a $2,000 fine to cover the cost of the damage she had caused to the taxi this financial penalty compensated the taxi driver for harming his property while reinforcing the importance of accountability for such actions check out
