A Butler man is facing charges in Butler City after police allege he had been an “annoyance to the public” while protecting a suspect.
Last Thursday just before 5 p.m., state police say they saw a vehicle doing burnouts and partial donuts in a lot at the intersection of Third and East Jefferson Street.
When the officer approached the scene, it’s alleged the driver fled on foot to a home located on the 800 block of East Jefferson.
While an officer attempted to enter the home and arrest the driver, 22-year-old Robert Budmark blocked the doorway. At the time Budmark was screaming, yelling, and being an “annoyance to the community.” Budmark was then arrested.
Budmark has been charged with obstructing the administration of law, resisting arrest, and disorderly conduct. He’s being held in the Butler County Prison on $10,000 bond as he awaits a preliminary hearing.
The driver of the vehicle alleged to have done burnouts and half donuts has not been formally charged.
