Disturbance ties up cops

Jun. 27, 2009 (Baltimore Sun delivered by Newstex) --
If anyone wonders what can tie up a Baltimore police district and delay 
response to other calls, here's one overhead on the scanner on an otherwise 
quiet Saturday night. Police were trying to deal with a large party that 
attracted up to 300 people on Seidel Avenue off Bel Air Road in Northeast 
Baltimore about 9 p.m.


After several cruisers went up there, an officer got on the radio and 
shouted: "We need every available unit up there." That attracted a pile of 
cops who struggled for about 15 minutes to get the crowd under control and 
out of the area.
At one point, an officer said: "We're trying to negotiate" to which another 
officer, possibly a supervsor, responded, "Tell them to go inside or leave 
the area. Tell them to shut it down, go inside or leave the area."
I was listening to the scanner in the office and I don't know what kind of 
party this was, but the police had the helicopter, Foxtrot, fly low. Said an 
officer: "Have him make an announcement. Everybody has been warned not to 
loiter. Anybody standing will be arrested."
The air went quiet for a few minutes. At 9:15 p.m., an officer called off 
the troops, saying: "Seidel looks pretty good right now."
That was good news to the dispatcher who told the officers, "We got 18 calls 
pending, six are priority one."
A few minutes later, another officer asked over the air, "I'm just curious, 
how many arrests did we get out of there."
The dispatcher asked and one voice answered, "I know I just took one in."
"That's what I thought," the first officer said. "Incredible."
