Man Arrested After Disorderly Conduct Incident During Medication Theft Investigation

A Summerville man was arrested after police responded to a disturbance while investigating a report of missing medication.

According to the Summerville Police Department, officers were dispatched at approximately 5:20 p.m. on Sunday, July 19, to a residence on Scoggins Street in reference to a theft report.

The complainant, Jeanie Marie Marks, told officers that her brother, Lawson Marks, lives at the residence with another sister, Rebecca Darlene Mack. She said Lawson was undergoing treatment for an illness and takes several medications daily, but some of his medication, including controlled substances, had gone missing.

While officers were speaking with the complainant, David Marks and Rebecca Mack began arguing with each other. Police said officers repeatedly instructed those involved to stop arguing and remain calm while the theft investigation continued.

According to the incident report, David Marks continued to be belligerent with Mack and several of her friends who were present. Officers said Marks made abusive comments toward Mack and referred to her friends using offensive language. Police reported the disturbance made it difficult for officers to continue their investigation despite several warnings.

Officer B. Campbell arrested Marks for disorderly conduct. He was transported to the Chattooga County Jail without incident and later issued a citation for the city ordinance violation.

Officer Ramirez remained at the residence to continue investigating the report of the missing medication.
