WILKES-BARRE — Police responded to a multiple vehicle crash at about 8 a.m. on Sunday at Scott and East Main Streets. Upon arrival, police detained Sherman Anderson, Shavone Saxon and Cree Carrington.
Police said Saxon smelled of alcohol, had glassy eyes and slurred speech, and repeatedly muttered “(Expletive) you, you kill us.”
Police said Saxon was advised that she was under arrest, allegedly refusing to submit and fighting with officers. Police said two additional officers had to be brought in to make the arrest.
Police said Saxon and Carrington were processed and placed in a cell while Anderson was taken for blood alcohol testing.
While in holding, Saxon exposed her buttocks, slammed her feet off the cell door, urinated on the floor and screamed, officers said. Saxon was removed from the cell and placed in a restraint chair for the remainder of her stay.
Saxon was charged with resisting arrest, disorderly conduct and public drunkenness. She was arraigned by video conference before District Judge Martin Kane and remanded to Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $20,000 bail.
