OCEAN CITY — An Ocean City man was arrested on disorderly conduct and hindering police charges early Sunday morning after a citizen reported seeing him hanging over the Route 50 Bridge.
Around 1:30 a.m. on Sunday, a Maryland State Police trooper was on patrol when he was stopped by a citizen and informed there was an unidentified man hanging over the Harry Kelley Bridge railing on the eastbound side of Route 50 into Ocean City. The trooper responded to the scene and made contact with the individual, later identified as Evan John Griffiths, 35, of Ocean City, and determined he was intoxicated and a danger to himself and others.
MSP troopers interviewed Griffiths and determined he did not want to harm himself, but was extremely intoxicated. The troopers made several attempts to get Griffiths home safely, but he refused to cooperate and began launching obscenities at the officers and told them to get out of his way. Griffiths allegedly continued to act in a disorderly manner and began drawing the attention of passing motorists.

Considering the small population here, yours is just an assinine statement. As well as your spelling and grammar.
Being you are intent on insulting the people here, the least you could do is make sure your lame comment is grammatically correct.
Better still, just sit there and shut up and try to be nice.

Well Joe, doesn't you agree or not? lmao
Pretty obvious this knucklehead has not travelled beyond the peninsular.
When these guys appear in court one could not imagine by looking at them that they were capable of such mayhem.I say make them go directly to court immediately after the infraction.That way the judge could see them in all of their glory.The problem there is that we don't have night courts.Maybe some day.
