On Tuesday, May 27th, 2025, at approximately 10:40 PM, I, Deputy Brooks, was dispatched to [70 BLOCK] Mary Alice Drive in reference to a Domestic Dispute. Dispatch advised that the caller stated that the dispute had become physical. Corporal Ramsey and I responded to the scene with our emergency lights and sirens activated (Code 1).
Upon our arrival, I observed three individuals outside of the residence in the front yard. Corporal Ramsey and I spoke with both complainants in this case who were identified as [VICTIM #1] and [WITNESS #1]. [VICTIM #1] stated that her boyfriend identified by [VICTIM #1] as Alex Avila was intoxicated and was acting belligerent and was breaking dishes inside the home.
[VICTIM #1] also stated that Avila urinated on the floor inside the residence. [VICTIM #1] stated the altercation continued outside until [VICTIM #1] fell on the ground next to the vehicle parked in the front yard. [VICTIM #1] also advised me that she was not sure if Avila was intentionally breaking the dishes. [VICTIM #1] told me multiple times that she did not want Avila to be arrested.
I spoke with [WITNESS #1] who stated that while inside the residence he saw Avila acting belligerent and being aggressive towards [VICTIM #1]. [WITNESS #1] stated he tried to step in to try and defuse the situation. [WITNESS #1] then stated that Avila became aggressive towards him so [WITNESS #1] punched him in self-defense. I attempted to speak to Avila about the incident but because of a language barrier and Avila being intoxicated he was unable to tell me what happened.
After speaking with the parties involved it was determined that Avila was the predominant aggressor in this case. Avila was placed in handcuffs behind his back which were checked for fit and double locked. Avila was placed in the back of my patrol car which was searched for contraband before and after Avila was transported to Monroe County Jail. I transported Avila to Monroe County Jail and turned him over to jail staff.
Avila was charged with County Ordinance Disorderly Conduct (7.5-2.A(1). The interactions between all parties involved in this case was captured on my body-worn camera.
