Trespasser locks himself inside a hospital bathroom stall before being arrested
Denton TX March 10 2021 A 22-year-old man stopped by security for trespassing was arrested Friday morning after he allegedly entered a hospital where he had trespassed last year.
When confronted by security officers he then locked a bathroom stall door and sat down on the floor inside, according to the police report.
Officers arrived at the 3000 block of Interstate 35 after hospital staff informed them the man was trespassing and had been lying down in the bathroom for 10 minutes.
Police located him in a bathroom stall and spoke to him, observing he was conscious but wouldn’t respond when asked if he was all right.
Officers asked the man if he would open the stall door and he unlocked it, the report states, telling them he was ready to leave and was waiting on a ride.
After security staff told police that the man was trespassed from the hospital last year and wanted to enforce it, he was arrested on a charge of criminal trespass.
