WINONA, Minn. – A drunken woman was arrested, finally, after resisting and attacking police officers who were trying to escort her to her boyfriend’s car to be driven home. This according to the police write-up of the incident. Officers had been called to Walmart about 4:30 p.m. for a woman who had planted herself at the service desk. She was obviously intoxicated, officers said, citing her blood-shot eyes and slurred speech. Officers phoned the boyfriend who drove right over. Together they got the woman standing. But outside the door, she assured a fighting stance, clenched her fists, and broke away to return inside. She kicked one officer in a chin. Then a backup police unit arrived. The officers managed to cuff the woman but only after she got in a few more kicks. Rather than letting the boyfriend take her home, police took Maria Consuelo Calvillo, 55, to jail.
Calvillo. Charges include assaulting police and being in Walmart illegally. She had been banned earlier as unwanted on the premises.
