DUNWOODY, Ga. — Dunwoody Police arrested a 37-year-old man Jan. 20 on numerous charges after his identity was revealed through a National Crime Information Center search.

Officers were dispatched to Coronitas Bar and Grill at 6806 Peachtree Industrial Boulevard regarding damage to property. 

Officers said they found the door of the restaurant shattered with glass spread across the store.

Security footage provided officers with a picture of the suspect, who was eventually located at the Shell Gas Station on Tilly Mill Road.

The suspect allegedly resisted arrest, injuring an officer in the process.

During a search of the suspect, officers found a glass pipe and less than 1 gram of methamphetamines. 

Because the suspect had no identification, officers used a fingerprint scanner to identify him.

The scanner revealed the suspect had an assigned number from the FBI showing he had given false information to police on three occasions. 

It was also revealed that the suspect had an active arrest warrant through the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office for failing to appear on charges of battery and public drunkenness in Decatur. 

Officers said U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement requested the man be placed on a detainer. 

The suspect was transported to DeKalb County Jail on charges of possession of a Schedule II substance, possession of a drug-related object, felony damage to property and two counts of obstruction.
