'Skeptical': Ernst suggests COVID numbers are inflated

PLYMOUTH &mdash; Borough police arrested an intoxicated woman who they say banged on house doors and walked in the middle of a street with a broken trophy while screaming early Thursday morning.
				Christine Searfoss, 41, of Beade Street, was arrested after she allegedly charged at an officer who stunned her with a Taser just after 4 a.m.
				Police said they received multiple calls beginning at 2 a.m. for a woman, identified as Searfoss, walking in the middle of the street and yelling at houses in the 400 block of Beade Street.
				When an officer arrived, Searfoss punched doors to homes and ran in the middle of the street, according to court records.
				A resident of Beade Street told police Searfoss was screaming hysterically most of the night.
				Searfoss ran into her residence and refused to respond to knocks at her door by an officer. Searfoss threw house appliances at the door and window and was observed holding a metal pole, court records say.
				Searfoss allegedly threatened the officer multiple times saying, &ldquo;I&rsquo;m going to kick you in the face.&rdquo;
				The officer left after giving Searfoss a verbal warning.
				Police returned to Beade Street just after 4 a.m. when Searfoss was in the middle of the street screaming and had set off smoke alarms inside her residence, resulting in a response by the fire department, court records say.
				An officer observed Searfoss screaming in the middle of the street, holding a trophy with a broken tip.
				Searfoss walked away from the officer, ignoring commands to stop.
				Police in court records say Searfoss was stunned by a Taser when she charged at the officer with the broken trophy, which had a sharp tip.
				Searfoss was arraigned by District Judge Joseph Spagnuolo Jr. in Plains Township on charges of resisting arrest, disorderly conduct and public drunkenness. She was jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $25,000 bail.
