MOTEL MELEE
• A 32-year-old man was arrested yesterday evening at a Centralia motel after he allegedly attempted to bite and hit police officers who detained him, according to police. Officers responded about 7:45 p.m. to Ferryman ‘s Inn on the 1000 block of Eckerson Road where a guest had reportedly offered drugs to other guests there, according to the Centralia Police Department.

He was booked into the Lewis County Jail for two counts of third-degree assault and possession of meth, according to police.

Wow The person that claims to be is not “me”. We need verification of account information when you post. I did not post the below comment about men in black. DCE, the Real Dirty Cop Enforcer has created a monster. Take that Centralia PD. It’s we the people and don’t forget it. The police state and the gun grab will back fire and police uniforms will be rags in the future.
Men in Black Maybe their police officers moonlighting as thugs? Oh thats right, the cops just commit crimes while wearing uniforms.
Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones were in town!
Geez the Centralia Police have shut off my camera 3 times already, will they be charged for tampering with evidence? Maybe a Federal Law Suit will help them think things over.
