When the police arrived, the girlfriend was in bed pretending to be asleep. When the officers told her she would be arrested if she didn't leave, she began screaming that she lived there, when in fact, she lived next door. She still refused to leave, so officers arrested her and took her to jail, where she continued to scream at the officers.
