Police Blotter: Canonsburg Man Calls Police, Asks to Go to Jail

A Canonsburg man twice called borough police Friday to ask that they take him to jail.

Borough police said Albert Johnson, 32, of 451 Highfield Ave. first called around 9:30 p.m. to tell them he had outstanding warrants and wished to go to jail. According to a report, Johnson was visibly intoxicated, and when police arrived, officers said there was no reason to take him into custody, according to a report.

But then Johnson called back around 11 p.m. from in front of Sarris Candies. He reportedly told police he didn’t “get along” with people and again asked that he be taken to jail.

Canonsburg police transported him to the station, where he was charged with disorderly conduct. He was arraigned before District Judge Gary Havelka and taken to the Washington County Jail after failing to post a $500 bond.

Johnson was still listed as an inmate at the Washington County Jail as of Tuesday afternoon.

Water main break reported

Canonsburg police responded to a water main break on Fourth and Weaver around 3:40 p.m. Friday. Officers reported water coming through the roadway, and they stayed until Pennsylvania American Water arrived to make repairs.
