On April 3, around 10 p.m. a patrol officer observed a vehicle in the drive-thru of a chain restaurant on Division Street. Police could not confirm the exact location of the restaurant.

According to police, the officer knew the passenger in the car should not have been at that particular location. Police say that the suspect had previously been banned from that specific restaurant, but they could not communicate why he was prohibited from visiting the property.

The patrol officer then stopped the vehicle on Weller Avenue, and as the officer approached he found the man eating a burger from the restaurant.

The man did not give a reason why he returned to the location where he was banned, or why he didn’t go to any of the other locations of that same chain where he was free to attend.
