A Richmond man hallucinating on Interstate 95 bit a deputy after running into traffic late Friday night, police said. The suspect, 30-year-old Adrian Chiodo, admitted to taking multiple drugs and mistook a deputy for someone wearing “a rubber deer mask,” they add. He was charged with Assault on Law Enforcement, Public Intoxication, and several other offenses and held on a $5,000 bond.
Also this past weekend, a woman rear-ended a car multiple times in the Chick-Fil-A drive-thru and later turned herself in. She’s now charged with Hit and Run and Assault and Battery.
Two men were arrested for DUI, one found behind the wheel after buying more beer at White Oak Mart, and another near a trail of Modelo cans on Willow Lane.
In a string of Larceny reports, unlocked vehicles on Basalt Drive and Armor Court were targeted, and Walmart shoplifters were caught skipping scanning items. One driver was also stopped for displaying a stolen license plate.
Other incidents include Public Intoxication on Liberty Knolls Drive, a Trespass arrest at Wawa, and a Traffic Offense involving a Bluetooth speaker thrown at a moving vehicle.
