A 25-year-old transient man was arrested early Thursday morning at 501 S. Mill Ave. and charged with disorderly conduct and criminal littering.

The man was released on parole by the Department of Corrections Wednesday.
A 28-year-old Mesa man was arrested at 600 S. Dobson Road Wednesday morning and charged with assault. The suspect allegedly assaulted his sister earlier that morning at the 1800 block of East Guadalupe Road in Tempe. According to police reports, the suspect was taking his sister to work in Tempe when they got lost. He reportedly wanted her to get out of the car but she refused as she had paid him gas money for the week. The suspect allegedly stopped in the street and reached across her to open the car door. Police said he then used his hands and feet to push her out of the car. He reportedly left the area. His sister called police, who arrested him later that day.
