Annandale man arrested for assaulting police officer

| Argueta-Diaz [FCPD] |
The Fairfax County Police Department’s weekend crime recap includes an incident in the 3600 block of Firehouse Lane in Bailey’s Crossroads on Aug. 4.
Officers encountered a drunk, shirtless man walking in the road and “not responding appropriately” at about 11:14 p.m. They arrested Norlin Arguetea-Diaz, 24, of Annandale, for being drunk in public.
Argueta-Diaz then assaulted an officer and kicked the cruiser door and window. Two other officers were assaulted while trying to restrain him. Argueta-Diaz was taken to a hospital, and warrants were obtained for three counts of assault on a law enforcement officer, drunk in public, and a pedestrian violation.
A man walking in the 6024 block of Vista Drive in Bailey’s Crossroads shortly after 2:30 a.m. on Aug. 4 was approached by four men who assaulted him with a baseball bat, took his wallet, and ran away. One suspect is described as Hispanic in his late teens wearing a red hooded sweatshirt.
Sigh, more junk in the Dump. Can we just get a huge dumpster and put it in the Mason Government Center for this crap. It would save the FFCP allot of costly efforts.
I can understand your irritation with this sort of occurrence. No one likes it and the FCPD was right to arrest him and charge him. He should be punished. But, please, let's not forget this young man is a human being and we do not know his story. What led to his drunkenness and his violence against authority we can only speculate. Referring to him as "junk" and "crap" is way too coarse and goes too far. Kudos to FCPD for doing their job. Those guys put up with a lot of unpleasant stuff. Thank a police officer every chance you get!
Thank you, 1:59. I get really tired of all the useless negativity on these comment threads.
10:43, I'd really appreciate it if you and other commenters here (or is it just one lonely loser?) would stop referring to my hometown as "The Dump." Is it perfect? No, but it's far from the disaster zone that you make it out to be. Get a life.
Seriously & is it necessary to post his picture?
