The woman told the officer the fight was only verbal, but she wanted the man to leave her home. The man was given a courtesy ride to the Licking Police Department, and made comments about wanting to harm himself on the way there. An ambulance was called, and the man said he wanted to be voluntarily admitted for a 96-hour mental evaluation.
The man was advised he was no longer allowed to go to the woman’s house.
