I was responded to 117 Whitaker St. (El Rocko) in reference to a Fight.
Upon arrival on scene, I made with Finlay Matheson. I was briefed by an officer on scene already that Mr. Matheson had been in an altercation with another person on his arrival and needed to be banned from the establishment.
Mr. Matheson handed over a school ID and put some of the cards on the ground. Mr. Matheson was attempted to be ed through GCIC/NCIC but not coming back. The school ID had the name “Fin Matheson.” I asked Mr. Matheson was that his whole name and wouldn’t give me an answer. I instructed Mr. Matheson to stay in a certain area while spoke to the other party, [WITNESS ]. Mr. Matheson stated, I had nothing on him and he doesn’t have to listen to me. I advised Mr. Matheson that he was not free to leave and needed to go back where I instructed him. Mr. Matheson then began walking across the street. I escorted Mr. Matheson back to where I told him to be.
I began to speak with Mr. [WITNESS ]. Mr. [WITNESS ] stated, Mr. Matheson had been causing problems and being disorderly. Mr. [WITNESS ] noted that Mr. Matheson urinated out in public right across from the street. Mr. Matheson began yelling at Mr. [WITNESS ] at this time, saying “Your daughter going to suck my dik!” I instructed Mr. Matheson to stop yelling and to identify himself again for the ban form. Mr. [WITNESS ] refused and then was placed in handcuffs, ed and placed in my marked unit. Next, I spoke with Mr. [WITNESS ] again with another staff member named [WITNESS ]. Mr. [WITNESS ] advised that he was at the door checking IDs and Mr. Matheson attempted to come in underage. Mr. [WITNESS ] denied Mr. Matheson entry and he began to attempt to persistently get in. Mr. [WITNESS ] told Mr. Matheson that he could not come in and to leave. Mr. Matheson stayed in the area. Mr. [WITNESS ] stated, Mr. Matheson made a reference to having a gun and grabbed at his waistline like he was reaching for one. In response Mr. [WITNESS ] admitted to pushing Mr. Matheson on the ground. A ban form was completed for Mr. Matheson and signed by Mr. [WITNESS ]. I proceeded to transport Mr. Matheson to MMC, due to Mr. [WITNESS ] saying he pushed him on the ground. While in transport Mr. Matheson continued to belligerent. Mr. Matheson kicked my rear doors in attempt to free himself and stated that I better let him go or he would “sue the fluke” out of me. Mr. Matheson also started spitting. Mr. Matheson asked me several times to take him and he would buy me food or give me money. Mr. Matheson offered nuggets, a burger and $40.00 separately. I did not respond to Mr. Matheson. Mr. Matheson then began to say racial slurs saying “Niger, Niger, Niger” and that he’ll “beat my a*s.”
Mr. Matheson was checked into MMC and cleared. During this time my BWC died. I transported Mr. Matheson to CCDC. While on the way there, Mr. Matheson attempted to offer me $120.00 to take him instead. Mr. Matheson made a comment saying he would tell people I raped him to make me look bad. Mr. Matheson claimed he would hurt himself I didn’t take him . I told Mr. Matheson that he would be going to the jail and he told me again he was going to sue me.
While in processing at CCDC, Mr. Matheson made spontaneous statements, stating it was his friends birthday and he was “sauced” which is why he was acting the way he was.
Mr. Matheson was processed without incident.
