SHOPLIFTING, HABITUAL OFFENDER

Around 8:30 a.m., Sept. 5, Warwick Police took an alleged habitual offender into custody.

Michael J. Goodger, 38, of Pawtucket, turned himself in at Warwick Police Headquarters on an active affidavit warrant for Shoplifting (second offense, greater than $100, a felony) and Habitual Offender (Shoplifting, Larceny, or Receiving Stolen Property; a misdemeanor).

Warwick Police provided an incident report from 5:24 p.m., June 6, when officers responded to Market Basket, 25 Pace Boulevard, for the report of a shoplifting from earlier that day. A store employee told police that around 2:29 p.m., a man stole $485.92 worth of Filippo Olive Oil and left the parking lot in a black SUV. He gave police the plate numbers and video surveillance.

According to police, the registration number was expired, but it connected the vehicle to Goodger. Police say they identified Goodger by matching DMV photos with surveillance images.

Police also checked the Flock Camera System, which they say showed the same plates exiting Universal Boulevard onto Bald Hill Road at 2:33 p.m. that day (Universal connects to Pace, where Market Basket is located). Police issued the arrest warrants.

On Sept. 5, after Goodger turned himself in, he was processed and transported to Third District Court.

DUI

At 1:03 a.m., Sept. 6, Warwick Police Offer Andrew J. Chretien was on routine patrol in the area of 500 Greenwhich Ave. when he spotted a white Subaru pass by at an alleged “high rate of speed” traveling north.

“In order to catch up to vehicle I had to accelerate to approximately 65mph,” Chretien wrote in the arrest report. “Once behind the vehicle I observed both of its passenger side tires to cross completely over the solid white fog line on the right side of the road.”

He lit the overhead lights and initiated a traffic stop. The vehicle made a turn onto Knight Street where it came to a slow stop.

Police identified the driver as Chelsea A. Debellis, 29, of 97 Eldridge St., Cranston. According to the arrest report, she had “bloodshot, watery eyes and slurred speech.”

Police asked Debellis to consent to a series of standardized field sobriety tests. She agreed.

Following the tests, she was asked to take a breath test at the scene. According to police, she consented, and blew a 0.14 at the scene. She was taken into custody and transported back to Warwick Police Headquarters.

At the station, she was seated next to the Intoxylizer 9000 and asked if she’d like to make a confidential phone call. She refused. Police said she also “refused to provide a breath sample” at headquarters.

Debellis was charged with DUI of Liquor (BAC unknown) and Refusal to Submit to Chemical Test (first offense).

NO TRESPASS ORDER

At 5:05 a.m., Sept. 6, Warwick Police responded to the Sonesta Suites, 500 Kilvert St., for a reported disturbance. At the scene, police spoke to a witness who said there was a “highly intoxicated” man “aggressively knocking on random doors within the complex.”

The suspect was identified as John Sebastian Castillo, 19, of Donna, Texas.

When the witness, an employee at the motel, told Castillo he needed to stop, he allegedly “became agitated and began swearing.” Castillo told the employee he couldn’t get into his room. The employee told him to come to the lobby for a new key.

He allegedly became aggressive, and the employee said he was going to call police. Castillo took off on foot.

The employee told police the business wanted Castillo “no trespassed” from the property.

While police were on the scene, Castillo entered through the back entrance of the lobby, slamming the door into a wall. Police took him into custody.

According to the incident report, Castillo was shirtless, wearing only blue jeans and boots, his torso was “completely covered in dirt and abrasions,” and “he had urinated in his pants.”

Castillo was informed of a No Trespass Order, barring him from the Sonesta Suites property.

The motel employee called police back and reported “a large amount of damage to Castillo’s room,” according to the report. The rear sliding door of the room had been “completely smashed.” The employee told police they “would handle the damage civilly.”

DUI

Around 11:30 p.m., Sept. 7, Warwick Police responded to Citizens Bank, at 10 West Shore Road, for the report of a black Jeep Liberty that was “all over the road and driving into oncoming traffic.” The vehicle was now parked at the bank, and the driver was smoking a cigarette.

The vehicle had allegedly entered the parking lot via the lot exit. Police identified the driver as Christine M. Rousan, 60, of 59 Walnut St., East Providence. According to the arrest report, Rousan was “tearful and actively crying.”

“I observed Rousan to be unsteady on her feet and slurred her words as she spoke,” Warwick Police Officer Robert S. Macera wrote in the report. “Rousan indicated that she pulled into the parking lot because she felt ‘a little weird’ [and] was trying to be responsible which his why she stopped driving and parked in the parking lot of Citizens Bank. It should be noted that I observed Rousan’s vehicle to be parked far outside the lines of any parking spot.”

Rousan allegedly told police she was at Ollies Pub, at 941 West Shore Road, from around 8:30 p.m. to shortly before her interaction with police.

She allegedly admitted to police that she “had three mixed drinks and advised that they were all Tito’s Vodka and cranberry.” Police noted three tall bushes at the scene that looked like they were run over by Rousan’s vehicle.

Police asked her to consent to a series of standardized field sobriety tests. She agreed. Following the tests, Rousan was arrested and charged with DUI of Liquor (BAC unknown, a misdemeanor) and cited for Refusal to Submit to Chemical Test (first offense).
