GP Police Incarcerated Man for Boorish Behavior at DMV Office on Beacon Drive

Grants Pass Police arrested a man for his boorish behavior at the local office of the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles early yesterday.

The Police Department reports officers responded to the disturbance involving 64-year-old Thomas Michael Campbell at the DMV office on NE Beacon Drive on Thursday around 8:30 a.m..

Police said an investigation determined that Campbell shouted at employees and threw items all over the DMV waiting room. They said he was escorted outside by workers and the door was locked for the safety of employees and customers. That's when he started hitting and kicking the doors while shouting statements about being a sovereign citizen. He finally left and was taken into custody at Fred Meyer.

Thomas Campbell was lodged at the nearby jail for Disorderly Conduct and he was being held without bail.
