10/17/2020- Officers responded to 227 Babcock Street, HRI, for a report that a patient had broken light fixtures and was using the broken covers to threaten other patients. This was the sixth time since October 14, 2020 police have responded to assist HRI staff with this particular patient.

Upon the officers’ arrival they were informed by staff that one staff member had already been injured by the patient, and that he had made threats to injure several others. Three officers approached the area and made visual contact with the patient, while additional officers with less lethal force options staged close by.

The patient was found to be leaning against a wall, holding the damaged light covering in both hands, with a physician and other staff members around him. One of our CIT-trained officers began negotiating with the patient to put the light covering down, to which the patient replied that he would not comply until a sergeant arrived. The patient then threatened several of the staff members by saying "I will slit your throat" and “you're next."

The sergeant arrived a short time later and while speaking with the CIT-trained officer and the sergeant on scene, the patient, without provocation, made his way into a different patient’s room and began assaulting him with the jagged edge of the broken light cover. Additional officers were able to extract the injured patient from his room and render medical care, at which point officers were able to confine the patient to a shared bathroom that joined the two bedrooms.

As part of continued negotiations, the patient informed our officers that he wanted to go to the hospital and did not want to stay at HRI. At approximately 08:30 AM

Fallon Ambulance Service arrived on scene. At several points our officer was able to talk the patient out of the bathroom, but each time he was wearing a t-shirt over his head with eye holes cut out and was holding (at different times) either a broken toilet seat, a broken cabinet or the broken light covering he had originally been holding.

Eventually, our CIT-trained officer was able to negotiate with the patient to put down the items he had been carrying around in exchange for a cup of water. Our officer was able to convince the patient to get on the stretcher without the use of force. The situation was deescalated by our officers to the point that the patient went voluntarily to the hospital, without restraints and without further incident. Fallon transported the patient to the hospital without further incident; however, he will be summonsed into court for the following:

Assault and Battery by Dangerous Weapon (ABDW) M.G.L. 265/15B.

Malicious Damage to Property M.G.L 266/126A
