Officers were called to Walmart for a store complaint of a shoplifter who had been detained after attempting to leave without paying for $250 worth of merchandise. The suspect, Patrina Marie Porter, 57, of Gurdon, was arrested for theft of property.

9:38 p.m.
Police were called to Pine Courts Apartments, 120 N. 20th St., for a 911 call with the female caller saying a gun had been pulled on her. Upon arrival the caller was identified as Tiarra Sessions, 34, no address listed. Sessions claimed that a known female had the firearm and became “physically animated” while speaking with officers, and the odor of intoxicants emitted from her person. Police spoke with the other female and a male who both said Sessions was the aggressor in the argument, but no gun was involved. Unable to calm Sessions or to find her a ride home, she was arrested for public intoxication. Continued drunken behavior during the arrest led to the additional charges of resisting arrest and terroristic threatening.
