NY Tourist John Demarco jailed for public intoxication at Nashville International Airport

On October 11th, officers were dispatched to pick-up zone 7 at the Nashville International Airport regarding a possible intoxicated person walking out into traffic. When officers arrived, 38-year-old John Demarco was observed sitting on the bench at pick-up zone 7. Demarco showed visible signs of intoxication and admitted to consuming alcohol when speaking to officers. Demarco was given opportunities to contact family or friends to pick him up but could not operate a cell phone and was told to sit down because he was unsteady on his feet, but he refused. Officers placed Demarco under arrest for public intoxication and found an open bag of CBD gummies in his shorts when placing him into the patrol vehicle.
