An Adel man and a Perry man were arrested for disorderly conduct Wednesday afternoon when their screaming and shoving was reported to the Perry Police Department.

The alleged altercation occurred about 4:30 p.m. in the 1300 block of Willis Avenue.

According to court records, witnesses said they heard and saw Hickman and Proctor allegedly “yelling and cursing” at one another in the parking lot, and Hickman “was seen on video footage, pushing the other subject in the chest area with his hands.”

Hickman admitted to pushing Proctor, according to court records.

In addition, Proctor allegedly interfered with official acts when he “refused to listen” to a Perry Police Department Officer’s verbal request to separate himself from Hickman. Proctor also allegedly “refused to produce identification” and “tensed his body and resisted” being restrained in handcuffs and “resisted getting into the back” of the officer’s patrol vehicle.
