A man was arrested after acting disruptively at a Salina liquor store.

According to the Salina Police Department (SPD) at around 8:30 pm on Wednesday, officers were dispatched to Salina Wholesale Liquor (100 block of N. Ohio) regarding a man acting disruptively.

Reportedly, the man was told to leave the store multiple times by employees. He then left, but came back and employees contacted SPD. 

When officers arrived, the man removed his shirt inside the store and attempted to fight an employee. He was then arrested and removed from the store.

SPD arrested 42-year old, James Brown and officers determined he was 'highly intoxicated.' Officers took Brown to Salina Regional Health Center for evaluation. 

Brown was then booked into the Saline County Jail for the requested charges of Criminal Trespass and Interference with Law Enforcement.
