What's your hurry?

ALTON - We all know there's no excuse for traveling in excess of 55 miles over the posted speed limit. Still, one Massachusetts man's excuse seemed pretty lame.

Det. Jay Pelletier summoned Jian Ye, 21, of Malden, Mass., for criminal speed after he paced him at 120 mph on I-95 in Alton.

In his defense, he reportedly said his girlfriend had to go to the bathroom.

Can't stay here

OLD TOWN - A Frankfort man was arrested for violating his bail after he wouldn't leave a bar where he was no longer welcome.

An employee of the Riverfront Pub flagged down Officer Lee Miller on Aug. 21 around 12:14 a.m. to ask the officer to assist in removing the unwanted patron. The employee told the officer that the man, later identified as Daniel Robbins, 49, of Frankfort, was overly intoxicated and disrupting customers, and he wanted him to leave.

Miller located Robbins and while explaining the situation, he noticed that the man seemed intoxicated and was unsteady on his feet. Dispatch told Miller that Robbins had bail conditions not to possess or consume alcohol stemming from an operating under the influence arrest. Robbins was arrested and taken to the Old Town Police Station, where it was determined he had been drinking. He was then escorted to Penobscot County Jail.

Should I not have done that?

ORLAND - Maine State Tpr. Greg Roy issued Desirae Reed, 27, of Orland, a summons for displaying a fictitious inspection certificate as a result of a traffic stop on Route 1 in Orland.

Reed allegedly cut the number 7 from a 2010 sticker and placed it in the number 1 slot.

'I haven't drinking at all'

OLD TOWN - An Enfield, Conn. man went to jail after police determined he was more than twice the legal limit to drive over the weekend.

On Aug. 21, around 1:46 a.m., Officer Christine McAvoy was on patrol on Main Street when a vehicle in front of her reportedly took a wide turn, and crossed over empty parking spaces before the driver over-corrected and crossed the yellow line into the oncoming travel lane. After the driver took another wide turn onto Center Street, the officer stopped the driver, later identified as Brian Rossignol, 31, of Enfield, Conn. Rossignol had difficulty with his documents, and McAvoy noticed signs of impairment, including glassy eyes, slurred speech and the smell of alcohol. When she asked him how much he had to drink, Rossignol reportedly replied, "I haven't drinking at all." Later he admitted to consuming several drinks, according to police.

The officer administered field sobriety tests, which police say Rossignol reportedly failed. When asked if he should be driving, he reportedly said, "I should have let someone else drive."

He was arrested and a subsequent Intoxilyzer showed his breath alcohol level was 0.19 percent, more than twice the legal limit. A license check also showed that his license was suspended in both Maine and Connecticut. Police also located a marijuana joint in the car.

Rossignol was taken to Penobscot County Jail and charged with operating under the influence, possession of a usable amount of marijuana, operating after suspension and possession of an open container.

How about them apples

PERRY - A man went to jail for throwing apples at two other people last week.

On Aug. 15, Maine State Tprs. Miles Carpenter, and David Barnard and Sgt. Jeffrey Ingemi responded to a family fight complaint. As a result, Darrell Trott, 46, was arrested for two counts of domestic assault and also summoned for possession of a firearm by a felon. Ronald Trott, 27, was also summoned for possession of a firearm by a felon.

Darrell allegedly threw an apple at another man, striking him in the head, and then hit a woman in the face. After he was arrested, he reportedly became combative and was taken to the jail in a cage by Pleasant Point Police.

Really?

ELLSWORTH - Police are trained to notice when someone is under the influence of illicit substances, which is why it's a good idea not to be on them when appearing for your court date.

On Aug. 13, Maine State Tpr. Cliff Peterson was in Ellsworth District Court awaiting a trial when he observed a male who was nodding off and appeared to be under the influence of something.

Zachary Hutchins, 18, was arrested for violation of probation as he reportedly had drugs in his system.

Sticker shock

OLD TOWN - Usually when someone attaches false plates to a car, it's so the sticker isn't expired. That wasn't the case on Sunday.

On Aug. 22, Officer Jim Fearon stopped the car for lack of an inspection sticker and noticed that the registration had also expired back in May. When he ran the plate, it was registered to a different make and model than the car he had stopped.

The driver, Jan Dubois, 56, of Old Town, told him that she and her husband had recently purchased the car and put the plates from the old vehicle on this one.

She was issued a summons for attaching false plates and warned for the inspection sticker.
