We were doing the very big International Fall Festival Parade in Eau Claire Saturday when a very unMayberrylike thing occured. I was walking behind the squad car as usual interacting with the people along the way. Suddenly a middle aged woman ran up to the squad car and stuck her head in the back window to see the woman moonshiner prisoner I had. She yelled, "You let my grandma go, you can't have my grandma. If I can't have my grandma I will take her jug." So she reached in and took the antique moonshine jug out of the car. I thought she was playing around so I blew my whistle at her and took her by the arm. She really started to struggle and wanted the jug. I realized then that she was under the influence of something so I didn't want to hurt her. So I acted like she was playing and I finally was able to get the jug from her and I wrote her a citation while she was pulling at me. I did get away from her and someone from the crowd came out and took her to the sidewalk. That is the first time anything like that has happened.
