Man charged after urinating in bush in Portsmouth

PORTSMOUTH — Here are some highlights from the Portsmouth police report from over the past week:

Saturday, July 25

Katherine L. Benevides, 20, of 40 Coggeshall Ave., Bristol, was charged at 1:07 a.m. on a bench warrant issued by Second District Court. Police made the arrest after stopping Ms. Benavides’ car on Turnpike Avenue because she was speeding and ran a stop sign, police said. The warrant had been issued because Ms. Benevides had failed to appear for a court arraignment, police said.

Luis H. Carmona, 57, of 101 Borden Ave., Johnston, was arrested at 6:33 p.m. on a charge of with disorderly conduct (exposing his genitals). Police responded to the waterfront area of 161 Carnegie Heights Drive for a report of multiple males disturbing the peace on the beach. A man who lives in the area told police that several fishermen in front of his property were being loud and unruly and using profane language. The complainant said he spoke to the fishermen in an attempt to quiet them down when one of them started urinating in a bush on his property. The men told him to “get lost” and said they would not leave, the man told police. Mr. Carmona admitted to police that he had urinated in front of the complainant, police said.

Michael F. McLaughlin, 22, of 1970 Commonwealth Ave., Apt. 47, Boston, was charged at 10 p.m. with driving while intoxicated and refusal to submit to a chemical test. His car was stopped on Turnpike Avenue because it was being driven erratically and had struck some curbing, police said.

Monday, July 27

A Daisy Red Ryder BB gun — similar to the one that Ralphie Parker salivated over in the 1983 movie “A Christmas Story” — was found in the roadway on Route 24 northbound near the Sakonnet River Bridge shortly after 2 p.m. Police had originally reported to the area after receiving a report of a possible firearm in the road. It appeared the damaged BB gun had fallen onto the road along with some other debris, police said. The gun was brought back to headquarters, where it was tagged and placed in the armory.
