On May 16 at 11 p.m., an officer was inside a fast food restaurant in the 3300 block of Leonardtown Road in Waldorf when he observed a woman enter the business.
She was disheveled and appeared to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The officer attempted to talk with the woman to see if she needed help, but she suddenly began cursing and went into a bathroom.
She continued cursing and refused to leave. The officer attempted to check on her, but she struck him on the arm with a belt. She tried to assault the officer again but he was able to take her into custody after a brief struggle.
Megan Lee Maxwell, 38, of Mechanicsville was charged with disorderly conduct and assault. PFC R. Bagley investigated.
