As they were questioning him another man began yelling obscenities at the officers from his residence. He came out of his home, with his mother, and continued to berate the officers. The officers instructed the man to go back into his residence and cease interfering with their investigation. The man refused to go back inside and instead approached the officers in an aggressive manner and became more loud and disorderly. The man was advised a final time to either return to his residence or be arrested for disorderly conduct.
