A 31-year-old Monsey man was arrested after an incident at a 7-Eleven on College Road escalated from a disorderly conduct complaint into an alleged attempted assault on a police officer, according to the Ramapo Police Department.

Police said officers responded to the convenience store at approximately 8:45 p.m. following reports of an intoxicated and disorderly man inside the business. Upon arrival, officers recognized the suspect from previous incidents at the location and noted that he had previously been issued a trespass warning for the store.

During their investigation, officers learned the suspect had allegedly slapped a 15-year-old male while inside the store.

Authorities said the situation quickly intensified while officers were handling the incident.
