Drunken Father is Arrested After Ordering Children to “Bite The Officers’ Faces Off”

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Colorado Springs police say a dad accused of passing out in a McDonald’s playground told his children to “bite the officers’ faces off.”

Officers ended up using a stun gun on 28-year-old Joshua Alger after he resisted police commands and kicked an officer in the face, a police report said.

Police were called to the McDonald’s at 4801 N. Academy Blvd. after 4 p.m. Wednesday on a report of “an intoxicated party passed out with two children in the playground area,” the report stated.

Officers determined that Alger was allegedly intoxicated on a playground bench and discovered that he also has a misdemeanor warrant for failing to appear in court on a December obstructing police charge. Police said Alger became irate after officers summoned the children’s mother to pick them up.

“At that time, Alger became increasingly agitated and began threatening Officer (Steve) Aulino and telling the children to ‘bite the officers’ faces off,’ ” the police report said. Alger allegedly refused police commands to get off the bench and began yelling at officers.

A wrestling match ensued and officers took Alger to the ground, where he allegedly kicked Aulino in the face, the report said. Another officer finally used his Taser on Alger.

He was booked for felony assault on a police officer, possession of a small amount of marijuana and resisting arrest.

Spider-Man Impersonator Arrested on Hollywood Walk of Fame

A professional Spider-Man impersonator was arrested in the tourist-friendly section of the Hollywood district in the city of Los Angeles today after a man complained that he had been attacked by the would-be webslinger. Police were not sure if they had the right man after they arrived at the scene because there were four Spider-Man impersonators at the scene but were able to find the suspect on their second try. The victim declined to pursue criminal charges against the alleged assailant but it turned out that there were outstanding misdemeanor arrest warrants for the faux superhero. It also appeared that the victim and the alleged wallcrawler Christopher Loomis knew each other before the incident. This arrest is the latest in a series of incidents involving professional impersonators who frequent the area near the intersection of Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Avenue. Tourists have complained that some impersonators react with hostility when they do not receive donations, make inappropriate remarks to certain tourists, fight with each other, and other problems in recent years. A Freddie Krueger impersonator was even accused of stabbing someone but no charges were filed.
