GCPD PRESS RELEASE

 

On 02/04 at 0127 officers responded to D’Place at the request of the Fire Department due to an

overcrowding issue inside of the establishment.  As patrons were exiting, officers observed one male walk to the rear of the building and begin to urinate in public.  The male was stopped and asked for his identification.  The male initially supplied a fake name and had no identification on his person.  The male was placed under arrest at this time and officers were able to determine his true identity.  Nathaniel Brown (26) of Camden was then placed in the rear of a patrol vehicle.  Brown began to kick the door of the patrol vehicle to prevent officers from shutting it.  Brown was eventually subdued and transported to police headquarters where he was charged with Lewdness, Hindering Apprehension and Resisting Arrest.  He was remanded to the Camden County Corrections Facility on outstanding warrants.  Brown did advise officers that he would sue the police department because his feelings were hurt due to his arrest.

Court: Trooper who kicked K-9 wrongly fired | Winston-Salem Journal

The court ruled Tuesday (Feb. 7, 2012) that the Highway Patrol improperly fired Sgt. Charles Jones

Winston-Salem Journal

RALEIGH, N.C. — The N.C. Court of Appeals has upheld a judge's ruling that ordered a state trooper who was fired for kicking his dog to be reinstated with back pay.

The court ruled Tuesday that Wake County Superior Court Judge James Hardin was correct when he determined two years ago that the Highway Patrol improperly fired Sgt. Charles Jones.

Jones was dismissed in 2007 on the orders of then-Gov. Mike Easley after video clips surfaced showing the trooper hoisting his canine partner off the ground and kicking him five times.

Hardin ruled that Jones' actions were no worse than the Highway Patrol's accepted methods of training dogs for police service.

The Department of Public Safety is studying whether to appeal.
