DSP News Release: Monday, January 26, 2009- Disorderly Guest Torments Hotel Staff

Location of Incident: Ramada Inn, 260 Chapman Road, Newark, Delaware, New Castle County

Date and Time of Occurrence: Sunday, January 25, 2009, 11:00 a.m.

Suspect: Ramon Quinn Ramirez, 46, of Brooklyn, New York  

Resume: Yesterday morning, Troopers responded to the Ramada Inn on Chapman Road in reference to a disorderly subject. 

When officers arrived on the scene, they observed the subject in question, Ramon Ramirez, yelling profanities on the phone in the hotel lobby.  He was obviously intoxicated and agitated.  This investigation revealed Ramirez was dropped off by an unknown third party at this hotel. Ramirez allegedly entered the lobby and approached the front desk.  He demanded the staff let him into a particular room so that he could retrieve his things.  The hotel staff could not find him in the system as a registered guest and were unable to take Ramirez to the room in question without the permission of the guest on file. 

Ramirez became angry. He threw a phone book at a female hotel clerk and rammed a housekeeping cart into a wall- damaging same. 

With Troopers on the scene, Ramirez continued his unruly behavior.  When officers advised him that he was under arrest, he refused to go quietly and resisted officers.  Ramirez was finally handcuffed and transported back to Troop 2.  He was formally charged with the following misdemeanor offenses: Offensive Touching, Resisting Arrest, Disorderly Conduct, Public Intoxication and Criminal Mischief.  He was released on a $2,000.00 unsecured bond.
