A 25-year-old Columbus woman was arrested early Saturday morning after allegedly scuffling with police at a downtown bar.

Officers were called to the bar in the 300 block of Washington Street about a person who had been injured in a fall. While trying to deal with that situation, Bobby J. Noblitt allegedly became disruptive and eventually grabbed an officer’s shirt and tried to pull away as she was being arrested, says Lt. Matt Harris, spokesman for the police department.

She was arrested on charges of public intoxication, disorderly conduct and resisting law enforcement.
