Around 2:20 in the morning on December 24th, Galesburg Police were dispatched to the area of Brown Avenue and Walsh Avenue in reference to a possibly suicidal male subject on the railroad tracks. Police received reports that a male subject was possibly underneath a train in the area and the subject’s girlfriend was attempting to get him into a vehicle. When officers arrived, they observed a sedan on Morton Avenue with a female and male passenger and initiated a traffic stop. The male passenger was identified as 18-year old Quentin Britton of Galesburg. Britton exited the vehicle and began to swagger as he walked and spoke with slurred speech. Officers informed Britton he was under arrest and he began to walk away from police. Officers grabbed ahold of Britton’s jacket, but Britton broke free and began to run. Police were forced to use a taser on Britton and he was detained. An officer broke a finger during the incident. Associates of Britton told police he was intoxicated and having a “bad trip” after allegedly taking ecstasy, according to police reports. Britton was eventually transported to the Knox County Jail and charged with Public Intoxication and Felony charges of Resisting a Peace Officer.
