Deputies who were at a local apartment building to serve a warrant on one person ended up arresting another person on outstanding warrants. They had gone to the apartments on H Street to see if the person they wanted was in the vicinity, but instead heard a disturbance inside the house. When a deputy knocked on the door, at first he was not let in, and heard someone yell belligerently through the door that they didn't have to open it for the police. The deputy was able to gain entry, though, and when he ran a warrant check on everyone inside he hit upon an outstanding warrant for one of the occupants, Maria Grimes. However, the person who had apparently yelled through the door continued to be abusive verbally toward the deputies, in spite of multiple warnings to quiet down and stop getting up as if she were going to accost them. After the third refusal, 25-year old Tammy Lee Cooper was arrested on a charge of obstructing the service of the warrant on Grimes.
