A 27-year-old Carson City man was arrested in the 700 block of Silver Oak Drive Friday afternoon for two counts of battering a peace officer, two counts of unlawful acts related to bodily fluids, and one count of disorderly conduct after allegedly drinking formaldehyde, spitting on neighbors and attempting to fight multiple people.
Deputies were dispatched to the residence in reference to an unwanted subject. The reporting party stated they were woken to the sound of a man pounding on their door, yelling profanities. The reporting party said they looked through their peep hole and saw their neighbor pounding on the door and drinking from a container, and was yelling profanities telling them to open their door.
The man then began to argue with their next door neighbor, and was allegedly challenging the neighbor to fight. The reporting party said they saw the man spit on their neighbor before walking away.
When deputies arrived, they spoke with the man and according to the police report, he had red, watery eyes, and his behavior would change drastically from appearing fatigued with heavy, droopy eyelids, to being animated and opening his eyes extremely wide.
According to the report, the man told deputies he had “used formaldehyde.”
While arresting the man for disorderly conduct, the man began pulling away from deputies and spitting. He managed to get one deputy in the right arm and another deputy in the face.
Bail: $10,242

Randy Ray Stine was arrested after patrol deputies drove past a parked vehicle with a man inside who appeared to be smoking from a glass pipe used for smoking methamphetamine.
Deputies turned around and parked behind the vehicle. According to the report, when they made contact with Stine, he gave them a different first name, stated he did not know his social security number, and he gave a birthday, which came up clean through a wants and warrants check.
