He was delivered to the custody of DOC in Hyattsville without further incident.

3800 block of 37th Street: At about 9:50 am officers took a report of a theft from auto.

During the conversation with the officers the customer became extremely irate and began yelling profanities inside the store disturbing other customers. He was arrested, charged with disorderly conduct and delivered to the custody of DOC in Hyattsville.
