BOARDMAN, Ohio -  Boardman Police may have learned there’s some truth in the adage, “No good deed goes unpunished”.

A man who Boardman Police did a favor for by driving him to a hotel, was later arrested at that hotel hours later for allegedly trashing his room.

According to a police report, police first encountered 31-year-old John Tinney of Boardman late Tuesday in front of a business on Tiffany South.

Tinney told an officer that his mother had thrown him out of her house, and he was looking for a place to stay.

At Tinney’s request, the officers not only called the Days Inn on South Avenue to see if they had any rooms available, but they also drove him to the hotel as a courtesy.

Four hours later police were called back to the Days Inn to investigate a report that someone was throwing furniture out of the window of a second-floor room.

Officers found a desk, chair, television, nightstand, and alarm clock on the ground outside the building.  The windshield of a car beneath a hotel window was smashed.

After the occupant of room 202 refused to open the door for police, officers used a master key to get inside and wrestled Tinney to the floor and put him in handcuffs.

Police found debris on the floor of a room with towels stuffed into the toilet.

The room’s tv, nightstand, desk, and chair were missing, according to police.

Tinney was booked into the county jail on charges of vandalism, criminal damaging, obstructing justice, resisting arrest, and inducing panic.
