Roseburg Police jailed a man following a littering incident on Monday.

An RPD report said at 12:50 p.m. officers witnessed 63-year-old Larry Linderman throw a beer can off of the Washington Street Bridge into the South Umpqua River. When officers attempted to take him into custody, Linderman allegedly tried to pull away and was subsequently taken to the ground. While escorting him to the patrol vehicle, Linderman reportedly kicked two patrol cars, causing damage to both of them.

Linderman was charged with littering within 100 yards of waters, resisting arrest, two counts of second-degree criminal mischief, and for a parole violation. Bail was set at $6,250.
