Narrative: On 25 April 2009 at 1203 AM, deputies from the Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office responded to a reported large party creating a disturbance in the 4500 block of Pheasant Drive, Salisbury, MD.

One of those subjects, Aaron Pederson, became very loud and was repeatedly told by one of the deputies to lower the level of his voice. Each time Pederson would comply for a short while, but would raise his voice to a level that was obviously disturbing to other people living in the neighborhood that were trying to sleep. Because of his refusal to heed the deputy’s advice and keep the level of his voice low, Pederson was arrested.
