CHATTER AWAY: Overnight Open Thread

Tampa’s CBS News affiliate reports:



Robert Wayne Miller of Zephyrhills, Fla., was arrested Sunday around 9 p.m. for disturbing the peace with his lawn mower, according to a Pasco County complaint affidavit. He faces misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.

In body-camera footage obtained by WFLA, Miller’s lawn mower can be heard idling in the background as Deputy Michael O’Donnell, who responded to the complaint, approached Miller’s property. O’Donnell called out to Miller, and Miller revved the engine of his mower.

O’Donnell asked Miller to exit his property a few more times before Miller retreated into his home, according to the affidavit. Miller was ultimately arrested for refusing to stop his disturbing behavior and for not complying with a law enforcement officer’s command, O’Donnell’s statement said.
