South Kingstown Teen Charged With Obstruction After Lying About Name
Tyler S. Ormsby, 19, of 40 Hazard Ave., South Kingstown, was arrested at about 12:08 a.m. on Dec. 21 and charged with obstruction. Police said a Fourth Division District Court warrant was also out for Ormsby’s arrest.
According to police, an officer made a traffic stop on a white Nissan Maxma on Point Judith Road near Clarke Road for a defective exhaust and a defective rear tail light. Police said the driver was warned for the violations.
However, police said that a background check of one of the passengers – Ormsby – came back as invalid. Police said that when asked about it, Ormsby admitted to providing police with a different name because of a warrant out for his arrest.
Police confirmed the warrant, which was related to a Dec. 12 charge by URI Police for possession of alcohol by a minor. At that point, Ormsby was arrested.
According to police, Ormsby was processed at headquarters and then released at about 2:20 a.m.
