Ruston Police arrested a West Monroe man last week after he allegedly caused a disturbance while intoxicated at a Ruston business.
Louis Book, 20, was found arguing with an employee in downtown Ruston just outside the door of the premises about 1:15 a.m. on March 7. The employee said she had banned Book from the location, but he had returned. She told officers she wanted to pursue charges.
The employee also said Book is 20 years old and not supposed to be receiving alcoholic beverages.
Book used profanities and called the employee profane names in front of the officers. He had already been issued a citation approximately one hour earlier by another officer near a downtown restaurant.
Book’s arrest report noted he appeared to be extremely intoxicated. He was arrested for disturbing the peace by public intoxication and entry into premises after being forbidden and booked at the Lincoln Parish Detention Center.
