Mini Park Alert #2
A Rhinebeck man was arrested Friday afternoon after a brew in the park turned into resisting arrest.
The 55-year-old was sitting on a bench under the gazebo at the Rhinebeck Mini Park on North Park Road drinking beer around 1:45 p.m. Police arrived responding to a report of a suspicious person. When they tried to arrest him on an open container violation, he allegedly “refused by flailing his arms and pulling away from the officers,” Rhinebeck police reported.
Officers pepper sprayed him and eventually arrested him. He was charged with disorderly conduct and possession of an open container of alcoholic beverage, both violations and with resisting arrest, a misdemeanor. He was arraigned before the Red Hook town justice and sent to Dutchess County Jail on $2,500 bail.
The Journal typically does not identify those charged with misdemeanors or violations.
