Westville man charged with fouling Gloucester Township building with fire and feces
A Westville man who reportedly couldn’t pay his bar tab wound up being charged with using his own feces to draw on the walls and set fire to a bathroom in the police station.Police were called at 2:55 a.m. Sunday when Jason Detora, 24, couldn’t pay his bar tab at Skeeters Pub on the Black Horse Pike in Blenheim.
Detora told officers his girlfriend was on her way with money so he could pay, police said. Nicole Leadbeater, 22, of the same address as Detora, arrived at Skeeters.
Officers spoke with her in the parking lot and charged her with driving while intoxicated and on outstanding warrants from Pitman, said police.
She was taken to police headquarters to be processed and Detora was taken, too, as a courtesy, police said, so he could wait there for another ride.
Once at the police station, Detora allegedly used a rest room, but when he came out, a patrolman noticed an odor coming from the men’s room.
Police found toilet paper and paper towels had been piled up and set on fire in the bathroom. Detora allegedly had defecated on the floor and used his own feces to draw on the walls, said police.
Detora was charged with arson and criminal mischief and committed to the Camden County Jail in Camden in default of $35,000 bail.
