Police blotter
Trenton
Lifted Car: Anthony Littlejohn, 33, was charged with aggravated assault and robbery. Cops talked to a victim Jan. 8on the 100block of West Ingham Avenue who told officers that Littlejohn had come over the previous night to get personal belongings after they broke up. While he was there, he jacked her keys, cops said, and left. When he returned, the woman went to the car and retrieved her license plates which enraged Littlejohn, cops said. He put her in a chokehold and took the plates back and smacked her in the face with the car door when she followed him out. She called the cops and was complaining of pain when they arrived. She asked for a restraining order. Littlejohn was picked up on the charges this week. It’s Medical Pot, I Swear: John Travers-Chavies, 50, was popped by street crime detectives in the area of North Clinton and Lincoln avenues. Cops saw a black Nissan driving fast. Officers pulled over the car after it blew through a red light. Chavies rifled through his glove box while talking to the cops who noticed he was trying to hide something with his feet. Cops noticed pot in the car. He told cops he had a medical marijuana card and everything was above board. Cops found Five knotted sandwich bags with bud and an unlabeled prescription bottle with seven Xanax. Chavies also had $131 on him. The marijuana bags weren’t properly labeled, so Chavies was charged. “He was using medical marijuana as an excuse, but he wasn’t following the protocols of the law,” Trenton Police spokesman Lt. Rolando Ramos said. DUI: Anthony Scott, 40, was popped for driving under the influence after cops responded to a car for a suspicious car. Cops encountered a gray Infinity parked on the sidewalk, idling near a house on the 800block of Hamilton Avenue. Scott was behind the wheel passed out, cops said, so they had to wake him up. Scott reeked of alcohol, had bloodshot eyes and failed sobriety tests. He was charged with DUI and refused to submit to a breath test at headquarters, leading to additional charges Machete Chase: Francisco Torres, 23, was charged with aggravated assault after he chased his ex-girlfriend with a machete, cops said. An argument erupted Oct. 14, on the first block of Hewitt Street. The victim told cops Torres suspected she was cheating on him because she was sweating when she arrived home. They argued, and she pushed him to try to get her out of his face. Torres grabbed a power tool and chased victim around the house. She bolted outside. After things calmed down, she returned inside. That’s when, cops said, Torres grabbed a machete and chased the woman out of the house, threatening to kill her. The woman was unharmed. Warrants were put out for Torres, who was picked up this week. Cops recovered the machete but not the power tool, which the victim couldn’t identify. Don’t Resist: Leroy McCoy, 48, was hit with charges of resisting and obstructing the administration of law after cops were called out to the 100 block of Martin Luther King Jr, Boulevard when a building worker told cops two men were fighting. McCoy was highly intoxicated and was told to leave. He refused and walked into other parts of the building, cops said, growing combative with cops. He got into it with them and was hit with resisting charges when he refused to put his hands behind his back when cops went to cuff him. He was released with a court summons. Blunt Smokin’: Byron Payton Walker, 30, and Barry Kirby, 68, were arrested after cops noticed a white Ford Taurus near Southard and Ewing streets. One man was sitting in the car while another was outside of it. Officers smelled burnt marijuana and saw Walker smoking a blunt, cops said. Walker handed something to Kirby. Cops found them with pot and crack cocaine, cops said. Walker had warrants for his arrest and was held while Kirby was released on a summons Maced: Alicea McDonald, 22, faces stiff charges of aggravated assault and weapons offenses after cops said she maced people during a girl-on-girl fight. Two other women, Ty’sha Starr Ford, 21, and Shirielle Wade, 21, were charged with improper behavior after the crowd turned rowdy during the female fisticuffs after the South Rio on Warren Street let out after last call. Cops intervened in a fight in which Mcdonald pulled out and maced several people, cops said. The other two women were arrested and charged after the crowd got “hyper,” cops said. Bizzaro Case: Mark Kelly, 48, and Akeem Smith, 27, were arrested after cops responded to a shots-fired call which left a car riddled with bullets, cops said. Kelly and Smith haven’t been charged in connection with the shooting, and police don’t officially have any suspects, Lt. Ramos said, but continue to probe the matter. Cops responded to the area near the 600 block of North Olden Avenue and Meade Street. Officers “saturated” the area, Ramos said, noticing a car turning onto Poplar Street. It stopped in middle of the road. Kelly stood on street next to the driver, Smith, who appeared to pass him something which appeared to be a handgun, cops said. Then Kelly walked away from the car, cops said, toward a home. Cops pursued and tried to stop him but he bolted and locked himself in the home, cops said. Officers stopped Smith’s car on North Olden Avenue but he didn’t have anything on him. He had warrants for not paying fines, though, and was taken in on them. In a bizarre turn of events, Ramos said, when cops got back to headquarters, Kelly was there waiting for officers, having turned himself in. Ramos said the whole case is a head-scratcher. “At this point, we don’t know,” if they were involved in the shooting.
