20-year-old Ethan Bates was seen trying to sell drugs at the Marathon gas station on Holiday Drive early February 1st. The attendant at the gas station reported that Bates refused to leave and constantly asked if he wanted to buy drugs. Bates then walked to the Quality Inn lobby, turned around, and walked out. Earlier that same evening, Bates was kicked out of a Tanning Salon for walking in without a shirt or shoes. When officers came into contact with Bates, he walked away from them several times despite being in handcuffs. Once he was inside a patrol car, he immediately urinated on himself. Bates was taken into custody and charged with public intoxication.
