On 11 February 2023, I Ofc. Thomas Owens #158, responded to La Salsa Taqueria at 5701 Altama Ave in reference to a problem person. Glynn County Dispatch Center advised that a Hispanic male contacted the center to advise that employees at La Salsa would not sell him anymore alcohol.

Ofc. Nichols arrived just prior to my arrival and I met him in parking lot with the caller, Elias Gonzalez, and the owner of La Salsa, [REDACTED]. Speaking to [REDACTED] first, she stated she was contact by one of her employees in reference to Gonzalez becoming argumentative after the restaurant refusing to sell him anymore alcohol. [REDACTED] who was the employee serving Gonzalez advised that she already served him some alcohol but she refused after he became intoxicated.

CALLER DISCONNECTED

While attempting to speak to Gonzalez and listening to him converse between La Salsa employees I observed that he had blood shot, watery eyes, and I could smell the odor of consumed alcoholic beverage emitting from his breath.

It was determined that Gonzalez was under the influence of alcohol and contacted the dispatch center via an emergency line to report an issue that was not a crime or required emergency services. I placed Gonzalez under arrest for Unlawful Conduct during a 911 phone call.

I transported Gonzalez to the Glynn County Detention Center where he was turned over to jail staff without incident.
