A 43-year-old Carson City man was arrested Wednesday in the 1900 block of North Carson Street for suspicion of obstructing a police officer, a sheriff's deputy report states.
According to the booking report, deputies were called to the area at around 1 p.m. in reference to vandalism. Upon arrival a deputy made contact with management who advised an unknown person shot out three different windows to vehicles on the southwest corner of the lot.
The person also advised they witnessed a tenant walking on the property with a BB gun in his waist band earlier. Management stated the man may have been involved in the vandalism, the arrest report states.
Deputies knocked on the door to the room where the man was staying. A man opened the door and a deputy asked him for the tenant. The man advised the tenant left to the store. The deputy asked for the man's name. He provided a name and said "what's the matter," the report states.
Deputies re-made contact with management who said they were actually talking to the tenant. Dispatch sent deputies a photo of the man's driver's license and it was the tenant they had spoken with, who gave the officer a false name. Deputies returned to the room and arrested the man for obstructing a public officer. Bail: $637.
