Tourist Jason Hadley resists arrest after trying to force his way into Margaritaville

36-year-old Tourist Jason Hadley was one of 4-5 “drunk people” trying to force their way into Margaritaville around 10:17 p.m. on May 31st. Dispatch advised officers that they could hear a male “cussing out” the caller in the background while security tried preventing them from entering. When they arrived, they were advised that the group was denied entry due to their intoxication. Then, officers noticed Hadley, who reeked of alcohol, was refusing to move while standing in front of the entrance, causing a hazard to patrons. Officers gave Hadley a chance to leave, but he refused. This prompted Hadley’s friends to try pulling him away from the entrance, but he remained uncooperative. Then, while trying to get away from his friend’s grasp, Hadley turned around and started shouting profanities at officers. So, officers went to detain him, during which Hadley resisted, forcing them to use a takedown method to arrest him. Hadley was taken into custody for resisting arrest, disorderly conduct, and public intoxication on June 1st.
