A domestic dispute that found its way to outside the Coralville Police Department has led to the arrest of a Chicago man.

Reports say that just after 3:30 am Saturday, officers were asked to meet with a couple outside the building regarding a domestic incident. They made contact with 30-year-old Tryon Gibson and the woman. As she was attempting to explain the situation to offices, Gibson was asked to step aside and speak with a different officer to get his side of the story.  He allegedly refused.

While another officer was speaking with the woman, Gibson followed the two. He was told again to speak with different officers and not follow the woman, but he allegedly continued to disrupt the investigation and would not let the woman speak.

Gibson was arrested and reportedly resisted when placed into handcuffs. He also refused to get into the squad car.

A check of Gibson’s records indicated that a warrant was out for his arrest for failure to appear at a case management conference back in January on an OWI charge from September of last year.

Gibson was charged with public intoxication and interference with official acts, both simple misdemeanors. The OWI charge, his first, is a serious misdemeanor. Gibson faces up to 14 months in jail if convicted on all counts.
