Alcohol may have played a part in this disturbance. :)

After threatening police officers outside an Allentown strip club early Saturday, a 33-year-old man urinated on his cell floor and then clogged the cell's toilet, according to court documents.

Raul N. Caraballo, of Allentown was also found with several bags of heroin outside Platinum Plus, 1251 Airport Road, according to court records.

According to a criminal complaint:


1251 Airport Road, Allentown PA
Allentown police were dispatched to the strip club at 12:01 a.m. Saturday on a report of a man causing a disturbance outside the club. Caraballo was repeatedly told by police to leave, but he continued to argue. Police said he had a strong odor of alcohol.

Caraballo began to walk away, but then turned around and told police officers he "knew their names" and would find out where they live, which the officers took as a threat. After refusing more orders to leave, police told him he was being arrested for public drunkenness.

Police searched Caraballo and found 40 small bags containing a white powder in his waistband. The powder tested positive for heroin.

As Caraballo was being transported, he told another officer he "knew his name," and would "find his family."

Caraballo then urinated in his cell and intentionally clogged the toilet, causing it to flood the cell block.

He was charged with possession with intent to deliver heroin, possession of heroin, possession of drug paraphernalia, institutional vandalism and public drunkenness and three counts of terroristic threats.

Caraballo, of 612 Hanover Ave., was arraigned by District Judge Michael Faulkner and sent to Lehigh County Prison under $100,000 bail.
