TITLE: MAN THREATENS SUICIDE IN CL TWP HOLDING CELL

On Saturday, August 28, at approximately 9:30 pm, Patrolman Jeffery Glennon stopped a vehicle operated by Michael Bolton, age 45, of East Stroudsburg, PA on Route 31 South near Molasses Hill Road for speeding.  During the stop, Ptl. Glennon detected the odor of an alcoholic beverage on Mr. Bolton’s breath and soon determined that he was intoxicated.  Mr. Bolton was arrested and transported to police headquarters where he provided samples of his breath for chemical testing to determine the content of alcohol in his blood.  Ptl. Glennon charged Mr. Bolton with Driving While Intoxicated and Speeding.  During processing, Mr. Bolton repeatedly threatened to stab or otherwise kill himself.  He then began punching himself in the head with closed fists and slamming his head into the holding cell wall.  Ptl. Glennon and Patrolman Michael Akers had to restrain Mr. Bolton until the Clinton Rescue Squad could respond and strap him to a stretcher.  He was transported to the Hunterdon Medical Center for evaluation.
