Police arrived at Fernando’s, located on Dacula Road, just before midnight on Sept. 27, 2014. Employees told police the business was closed, but she wasn’t going anywhere.

The officer asked the woman what was going on, to which she replied, “I’m not doing this,” the incident reported stated. The woman was noticeably drunk and couldn’t keep her balance, and she was making little sense when she spoke.

At one point, ”she stated she wasn’t going to do any of this and began walking away,” the report said.

Then, a restaurant employee told the officer the woman had left her cell phone inside. The officer called out to the woman about the phone, and she turned around and said, “This is [expletive] up.”

She was told to stop swearing in a public area, or she would be arrested.

She continued with the profanity, including, “Y’all are a bunch of [expletives].”

She was arrested and taken to jail for disorderly conduct.
