(Stillwater, Okla.) — A Stillwater man who is on probation for spitting on a Perkins police officer and trying to break into a car near a Perkins convenience store has been jailed on charges of spitting on two Stillwater police officers.
Perry Michael Young, 22, who previously lived in Perkins, allegedly spat on Stillwater Police Officers Brett Moore and Newly McSpadden on July 30, according to the two-count charge filed last week.
A year ago, Young was placed on four years’ probation with a 30-day jail term, a $150 fine and an order to complete a treatment program for spitting on Perkins Police Officer Kyle Howard and attempting to burglarize a car near the OnCue store in Perkins in 2012.
The Perkins police officer was at the convenience store just south of the Perkins police station at 9:50 p.m. Oct. 21, 2012, when an OnCue employee said that Young had tried to break into her car, an affidavit said.
“As I was walking with her, a male came to me and asked if I wanted to talk to Perry Young. He informed that he had seen Perry Young by the Senior Citizen building, approximately two blocks south of OnCue, and heard him yelling ‘S…. going to go down tonight,’ over and over,” the officer wrote in his affidavit.
When the officer asked Young if he tried to break into a car, he said he didn’t and started calling people racists, the affidavit said.
When Young, who smelled of alcohol, was asked how much he had to drink, he said, “Just a little shot,” before yelling and attempting to put his hands on the officer, the affidavit said.
“I told him to not take aggressive stances with me and do not charge me again,” the officer wrote in his affidavit. But Young “put his right arm out and made a fist and inched it close to me,” the officer wrote in his affidavit.
“I told him I wasn’t going to mess with him or play games and to put his arm down,” the officer wrote in his affidavit. After Young complied, he was told he was under arrest for public intoxication, the affidavit said.
Young then started running, but stumbled, the affidavit said. With the help of a Payne County sheriff’s deputy and an Iowa tribal officer, Young was handcuffed, the affidavit said.
“Young was yelling at myself, Officer Martin and Deputy Henninger saying ‘I’m going to kill you families,"” the Perkins officer wrote in his affidavit.
Young continued to make threats and spat on the back of the Perkins officer’s head in his patrol car, the affidavit said.
After the deputy told the Perkins officer that he had a plexiglass divider in his car which Young could not spit through, Young was transported by the deputy to the Payne County Jail where he continued to make threats, the affidavit said.
“While I was in booking, Perkins Officer Jason Galt said he saw damage on the female’s car at the OnCue from throwing rocks at it,” the officer wrote in his affidavit.
The District Attorney’s Office alleged in a court document filed last week that Young violated his probation by his new charge, as well as being intoxicated in public in Stillwater in May and in June.***
