Roseburg Police jailed a man for an alleged trespass incident on Sunday.

An RPD report said at 1:00 p.m. an officer contacted the 40-year old while he was allegedly drinking alcohol at Riverside Park in the 500 block of Southeast Spruce Street, knowing that he was excluded from the downtown area. The officer attempted to arrest him but the suspect resisted, forcing the officer to take him to the ground. The man was detained in handcuffs without further incident.

The suspect was charged with resisting arrest, and second-degree criminal trespass and was cited for drinking in public. Bail was set at $7,500.
