Wanted Person
On October 19, 2025, at approximately 0059 hours, I responded to 846 Russ Road in the City of Greenville to serve a felony warrant for Danielle Elliott. Upon my arrival, I made contact with Danielle’s son Braden Denny. I asked Braden to step outside to speak with me about another recent incident he was involved in. I then asked Braden where Danielle was staying or if he has heard from her. Braden paused and looked at the house before stating she was inside the residence. I advised Braden that Danielle has a warrant for her arrest and asked if he would lead me to her room. Braden then escorted myself and Sgt. Prickett to the back bedroom where Danielle was staying. Danielle immediately began sobbing and moving items around in the room. Danielle was placed under arrest and into handcuffs that were gap checked and double-locked. Danielle was searched incident to arrest by P.O. M. Colby with nothing located. Dispatch confirmed the ‘aggravated possession of drugs’ felony warrant, with no bond, through LEADS/NCIC with the Darke County Sheriff’s Office. I then began to transport Danielle to the Darke County Sheriff’s Office. During transport I yelled at Danielle multiple times for attempting to get out of her handcuffs. Danielle continued sobbing and thrashing around the backseat. Danielle continued to face away from the backseat camera, and put her head between her legs. While driving southbound on Sweitzer Street, in front of Wayne Hospital, I observed Danielle begin to chew something. I then stopped the cruiser and requested another unit. Upon opening the backdoor, I repeatedly asked Danielle what was in her mouth and what she was chewing on. Danielle continued to state nothing. While speaking with Danielle, I was able to clearly see that there was nothing inside her mouth at this time. After looking around the backseat of the cruiser, I was unable to locate any contraband. I then continued to transport Danielle to the Darke County Sheriff’s Office. Upon releasing Danielle to jail staff, P.O. Colby located a small plastic baggie where Danielle’s feet had been. Upon examining this baggie, it appeared wet and to have saliva and white powder residue in it. I checked the backseat of cruiser 1941 prior to transport and this baggie was not there. I then asked Danielle how this baggie ended up in the backseat. Danielle stated it was not hers. After multiple minutes, Danielle admitted that the baggie was hers. Danielle stated that the baggie originally contained methamphetamine and she had been chewing it when she was arrested. Danielle stated she had used the last of her methamphetamine prior to being arrested. Jail staff was notified of this information so Danielle could be monitored.
DUI
On October 23rd, 2025 I was dispatched to 201 Wagner Ave (Speedway) in reference to a possible OVI complaint. The complainant was an employee of Speedway and stated an unknown male subject was in the store and was unsteady on his feet and smelled like alcohol. The complainant stated the subject was pumping gas and prior to my arrival went back into the store and used the restroom. Upon arrival I made contact with the subject in question, who was identified as Daniel Clark, inside the store. I asked Clark to come out and speak with me and he complied. I advised Clark of the complaint and asked if he had anything to drink today and he stated a couple beers. When I asked what a couple was he did not give a specific number at first and just again stated, “a couple.” I proceeded to count to four and he responded that it was three. I asked Clark how he got the gas station and he responded that he drove, “that truck” and pointed towards a parked truck that we already identified as his. While speaking with Clark I could smell a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from his person even with the high winds. Clark had glassy eyes and swayed while standing. I walked Clark over to my cruiser where he consented to field sobriety tests. The first test I administered was the HGN test. Clark stated he was blind in his right eye. Clark appeared to have full control of his eye and I did not see a difference in pupil size or equal tracking. Clark showed a lack of smooth pursuit in both eyes. Clark showed distinct and sustained nystagmus at maximum deviation in both eyes. Clark also showed onset prior to 45 degrees in both eyes. Clark gave 6 out of 6 clues on this test. The next test that was attempted was the walk and turn. Clark stated he had knee issues but thought he could complete the test. Clark had trouble understanding the starting position and getting into position. Clark started too soon before I got done explaining and demonstrated the test. After Clark started early and stopped I got him back into the starting position to explain and demonstrate again. Clark was explained and shown the test but stumbled off the line and complained of lower back issues. Clark performed poorly on the attempted tests. It was at this point it was decided to place him under arrest for OVI. Clark was placed into handcuffs that were gap checked for tightness and double locked. PO Wolfe got consent from Clark to search the vehicle and found one empty Beat Box alcoholic beverage with 5 more unopened. Clark was transported to the Greenville Police Department by Sgt Raffel. Once at the police department Clark was read and shown the BMV2255 form in the presence of PO Wolfe. Clark agreed to submit to a breath sample from the Intoxilyzer 8000 in which the results were 0.124 g/210L. Clark was placed under an Administrative License Suspension and his driver’s license was seized. Clark was provided with his copies of the Intoxilyzer 8000 results and BMV2255 form. Clark was issued a copy of his citation and advised of his mandatory court date and time and released to his son.
Misc. Complaint
On October 24th, 2025, at approximately 1949 hours, I was dispatched to 1517 E main St on a found grenade. Upon arrival I spoke to Levi Stump who stated the house was just purchased, as they were moving property in the house a grenade was located inside a drawer. Once I arrived Levi had already picked the grenade up and carried it outside and handed it to me. I placed the grenade in the front yard away from the house and the Dayton Bomb Squad was contacted. The bomb squad arrived and ran x-rays on the grenade and discovered it was just a training grenade used so trainees can feel the actual weight of a grenade. Dayton Bomb Squad took the grenade apart to show it was not live and advised the grenade was safe to possess and handle.
DUI
On October 27th, 2025 at approximately 0117 hours, I was dispatched to 835 Sweitzer Street (Wayne Hospital) Greenville, Ohio 45331 in reference to a male subject being intoxicated. Prior to my arrival, dispatch advised the subject was sitting in a white truck in the front parking lot facing Sweitzer Street. Upon my arrival, I observed a white truck bearing Ohio registration PNB2063 parked where dispatch advised it would be. I observed an occupant in the driver’s seat of the vehicle. Before approaching the vehicle, I observed the occupant moving around and reaching around. I also observed the occupant then move from the driver’s seat to the front passenger seat. Upon making contact with the occupant, Nathan Carrico (the offender), I advised him of who I was and why I was speaking with him. I advised Nathan the hospital had called because he was intoxicated and the security personnel observed him get into the driver’s seat. Nathan advised he was intoxicated but he wasn’t driving. Nathan also advised he did not have his keys near him. I explained to Nathan that did not matter and asked him to step out of the vehicle. I asked Nathan how he got to the hospital if he wasn’t driving. Nathan advised an employee from the Quality Inn brought him. I asked Nathan who the employee was and he advised he did not know, but it was a female. I asked Nathan if he had been drinking to which he replied yes. I asked how much and he could not give me a clear answer. While speaking with Nathan, I could detect an odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from his person as well as the fact he was slurring his words and repeating himself multiple times. I asked Nathan if he would be willing to submit to performing Field Sobriety Tests to which he replied he would. The following are the results of the SFST’s. Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus- I explained the test to Nathan and also asked if there were any reason why he wouldn’t be able to complete the test to which he replied no. Nathan was showing signs of nystagmus in his left and right eye during the Distinct Nystagmus at Maximum Deviation portion of the test. Nathan was showing signs of nystagmus during the Lack of Smooth Pursuit portion of the test in both eyes as well as the Onset of Nystagmus before 45 degrees. Nathan performed poorly on this test. Walk and Turn- I explained the test to Nathan as well as demonstrated the test. Nathan interrupted me multiple times while explaining the test and could not remain in the starting position during this process. Nathan was raising his arms and losing his balance before the test began. Nathan failed to touch his heel to his toe several times during the test. Nathan stopped after the turn to catch his balance after his first step. Nathan performed poorly on this test. One Leg Stand- I explained the test to Nathan as well as demonstrated the test. I asked if there was any reason why he would not be able to perform this test to which he replied no. Nathan was unable to keep his balance during the test. Nathan raised his arms more than six inches to keep balance. Nathan also was leaning to the left during this test. Nathan was unable to keep his foot parallel to the ground for the duration of the test. Nathan performed poorly on this test. It was at this time I advised Nathan to turn and place his hands behind his back. I placed Nathan into handcuffs which were gap checked and double locked. I advised Nathan he was under arrest for Physical Control. I asked Nathan if he would submit to a Blood Alcohol Concentration test to which he replied he would. I placed Nathan into the backseat of my cruiser (1946) and transported Nathan to the Greenville Police Department to perform the test. The backseat of my cruiser was checked before and after transport to which no contraband was found. Nathan consented to a search of his vehicle. During the search I located the keys to the truck in the back seat behind the passenger seat. The keys were in a position where they would have been accessible from any point in the vehicle. Upon our arrival to the PD, Nathan was advised of his Miranda Rights to which he replied he understood his rights. I read the defendant the BMV2255 form which he signed and advised he understood what I read to him. The defendant then took the breathalyzer test where he blew 0.178 of one gram by weight of alcohol per two hundred ten liters of the person’s breath. I explained my findings to Nathan and advised he would be receiving a citation for Physical Control. I issued a copy of the citation to Nathan and advised him of his mandatory court date and time. I also advised Nathan his driver’s license would be placed under a temporary suspension and is unable to drive until after his first initial court appearance where his driving privileges could be reinstated. Nathan was then released to his friend who drove him home. At 0600 hours, I arrived at Wayne Hospital to speak with Security and review security footage. While reviewing the footage, Nathan can be seen pulling into the parking lot at approximately 0107 hours on today’s date. Nathan parks the above-mentioned vehicle, exits from the driver’s side, walks around to the passenger side, returns to the driver’s seat and adjusts the vehicle in the parking space. Nathan is then seen walking into the hospital. The security footage will be entered into property as evidence. Nathan was issued an amended citation for Operating a Vehicle while Impaired 4511.19 A1A and 4511.19 A1h. Nathan was advised of his mandatory court date and time.
