SOUTH YARMOUTH — A man was arrested on felony warrants Thursday after a police officer observed him littering on Route 28.
A Yarmouth police officer in field training was on patrol when he saw a man walking down Route 28 drinking a “nip” bottle of alcohol.
After finishing the drink, the man threw the empty bottle into nearby brush, according to police.
When the officer approached the man about the littering, he identified him as Walter Harrison, 47, of East Falmouth.
A check revealed Harrison was wanted on felony warrants.
Harrison was taken into custody, issued a citation for littering and transported to Barnstable District Court to answer to the arrest warrant.
