On the evening of June 5, Bonnie Dwyer entered the lobby of the Somerville Police and reportedly told police that she had come to speak to an officer to report a past crime she claimed she had been a victim of.

Dwyer was given the forms to fill out in the lobby. Periodically, she would reportedly come to the window and curse, asking why we weren’t doing our jobs by helping her.

As an officer who had dealt with Dwyer earlier in the week passed through the lobby, she reportedly turned to him and yelled that he had made her lose her money.

While Dwyer was creating a commotion in the lobby, there was a community meeting in session across the hall from where she was standing.  She was asked to stop cursing and to continue with the paperwork she was asked to fill out.

While speaking to Dwyer, some members in the community meeting were looking out into the lobby, taking their attention away from the meeting.

Dwyer was asked once again to stop yelling and cursing and she was reminded that she was in a public building and she would be asked to leave the building otherwise.

Dwyer did eventually calm down and continued to fill out the forms, but she became upset again and asked if there was a business that was opened 24 hours, besides the Dunkin’ Donuts in Union Sq. She was directed to the Dunkin’ Donuts in Magoun Sq., which is also open 24 hours. She became upset at the suggestion and began to yell and curse.

Dwyer again was asked to stop yelling profanities or she would need to leave the building. She reportedly advised the officers that they could not do that.

After asking Dwyer numerous times to stop yelling and screaming, to no avail, she was asked to leave. She reportedly told the officers that she was not leaving, but she was once again asked to do so and failed to comply.

Dwyer was ultimately placed under arrest for trespassing and disorderly conduct and booked in the usual manner.

Two days later, on June 7, police were dispatched to a Washington St. location on reports that Dwyer was once again yelling at people and would not leave the property.

The responding officers reportedly found Dwyer sitting outside on the steps of the building yelling and behaving in a tumultuous manner.

After several unsuccessful attempts were made by the officers to calm Dwyer down and get her to leave, she was once again placed under arrest and charges with trespassing and disorderly conduct.
