A 43-year-old Salina man was arrested on suspicion of aggravated assault and disorderly conduct after he allegedly urinated in public Wednesday afternoon.
Officers were dispatched to the area of 1200 West Crawford Street at 12:50 p.m. Wednesday for the report of an aggravated assault, Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester explained. A witness told officers that she was outside the NAPA Auto Parts store at 1124 West Crawford when she saw Shane Boyer, 43, of Salina, urinating behind Dollar General, 1210 West Crawford Street. She said she advised him that what he was doing was illegal.

Boyer was later located in the 1300 block of West Crawford and taken into custody. Officers found a folding knife in Boyer's possession, Forrester noted.
