Tip: Don't Shake a Police Cruiser when a Cop is Inside

Officer Ryan M. Shore got a little "shaken" up while sitting in his police cruiser recently — thanks to a 20-year-old Cranston man's alleged antics during a heavy downpour that led to a disorderly conduct charge.

Shore, on June 18 around 5:35 p.m., was in a marked police car on Governor Street when two men were walking by.

Suddenly, the car began to shake because one of the walking men, identified as Jeff Yon, 20, of 84 Governor St., began to violently push up and down on the trunk.

"Due to the fact that it had just started to heavily downpour, it appeared as if Yon did not see me sitting inside," Shore wrote in his police report.

Shore stepped out of the car and Yon was suprised, to say the least.

"Oh [expletive]," he said before taking off east on Governor Street.

Shore chased him on foot and was led into Yon's yard and towards the entrance to the first floor common hallway. 

"I caught up to him as he was entering the apartment on the first floor and grabbed hold of his right arm. I was initially met with strong resistance however after a brief struggle, he stated 'alright man you got me,'" Shore said.

Yon was charged with disorderly conduct. He is due in court on July 11.
