Supreme Court won’t halt turnover of Trump’s tax records

NANTICOKE &mdash; A woman accused by Wilkes-Barre police with refusing to leave Wilkes-Barre General Hospital where she allegedly pulled a fire alarm was arrested by Nanticoke police when she refused to leave Cocoa Hut on East Main Street.
				Alannalyn Grace Reckeweg, 23, struggled with officers from Nanticoke and Newport Township when she refused to leave the store Friday night, according to court records.
				During the struggle, Reckeweg attempted to knee an officer in the groin and spat saliva that struck two officers, court records say.
				Reckeweg was free on $10,000 unsecured bail stemming from her arrest by Wilkes-Barre police on Thursday.
				In that case, Wilkes-Barre police alleged Reckeweg was discharged from the emergency room at Wilkes-Barre General Hospital and refused to leave the facility. Reckeweg pulled a fire alarm and struggled with officers when she was escorted from the hospital, court records say.
				According to the criminal complaint by Nanticoke police:
				Reckeweg entered Cocoa Hut and sat down at a booth refusing a store manager&rsquo;s request to leave the business. Reckeweg was prohibited from entering Cocoa Hut due to an incident at the business on Wednesday.
				An officer arrived and repeatedly instructed Reckeweg she needed to leave the property. Reckeweg refused telling the officer, &ldquo;I ain&rsquo;t afraid of you,&rdquo; the complaint says.
				The officer picked up a drink Reckeweg had at the booth and walked her to the door where she allegedly attempted to knee the officer in the groin.
				Reckeweg screamed &ldquo;Suck my (expletive expletive)&rdquo; at the officer, pulled down her face mask and spat saliva that struck the officer in the hand. Reckeweg also spat saliva that struck the face of a Newport Township officer assisting at the scene, the complaint says.
				Police in the complaint said Reckeweg was placed in the rear seat of a cruiser where she kicked and damaged windows.
				Reckeweg was arraigned by District Judge David Barilla in Forty Fort on three counts of aggravated assault and reckless endangerment, and one count each of resisting arrest, defiant trespass, disorderly conduct and criminal mischief. She was jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $25,000 bail.
				The officer from Nanticoke suffered injuries to a finger and shoulder during the struggle.
