The following reports were taken from the Boston Police Department crime logs from Feb. 15 to Feb. 22.
At about 4:25 a.m. on Feb. 17, officers arrived at the Marriott Copley Place Hotel on 110 Huntington Ave. after getting a call about a disorderly woman going up and down the elevators while yelling. They escorted the woman, who seemed drunk, back to the Sheraton Hotel where she was staying. When they arrived at the Sheraton, the suspect said she did not have her room key and was registered under her friend’s name. The Sheraton staff confirmed she was indeed a guest at the hotel though, at this point, the woman said she had to use the bathroom. After five minutes in the bathroom, officers told her she should come out immediately or she would not be allowed to stay in the hotel. She responded, “Actually I am taking a big s— and I will be out in a minute.”
DIAGNOSED WITH STUBBORN DETERMINATION
On Feb. 15 at 6:10 p.m., it was reported that a man in the waiting room at Massachusetts General Hospital on 55 Fruit St. was being disruptive, and would not leave. “I’m not going anywhere,” the suspect yelled. “Call the police. I’m not leaving.” After the suspect said this, a police officer identified himself but the suspect still refused to move and said, “I’m not going anywhere. You are going to have to call five more guys. I’m not leave [sic].” He shoved an officer into the nurse’s station and swung his fists around. In the end it took two police officers to escort him out of the building.
CURSED BY THE BELL
On Feb. 22 at about 10 a.m., two officers noticed several students hanging around the hallway after the bell rang at Madison Park High on 75 Malcolm X Blvd.One officer told the students to get to class, to which one boy responded that he wasn’t going to listen to rent-a-cops. The officer asked for the boy’s name and ID. The boy then yelled at the officer and pushed him away.
DESTINATION UNKNOWN
A woman got into a cab at 1:45 a.m. outside District 7 on Feb. 19 and asked to be driven to Revere for a flat rate of $45. After driving around for several minutes, the suspect gave confusing directions and said she had no money and would have to go to her aunt’s house to get some cash. Finally the driver drove to the police station, where the officer noticed the passenger appeared to be under the influence of an unknown substance. She exited the cab screaming and swearing.
