July 25th Press Release

On July 23, 2022 at 7:16 p.m., Norfolk Police were called to 105 N. 9th Street for a male that was under the influence of drugs.  When officers arrived they had contact with staff and Nour Kouatli, 26, of Norfolk.  Kouatli was speaking very slowly, his balance was off, and his eyes appeared to be heavy and glossy.  Staff told the officers that he had earlier tested positive for methamphetamine and that he was not welcome there since he tested positive.  Kouatli was given a trespass warning.  He claimed to be able to stay at a residence in the 1000 block of Koenigstein.  At 8:34 p.m., officers responded to a call at that residence as Kouatli had broken into the residence and was passed out at the kitchen table.  The manager of the residence said that Kouatli was not allowed to be there as he was under the influence earlier in the day. Kouatli had previously been told by the house manager that he could not be there until he spoke with his probation officer.  Officers entered residence and placed Kouatli under arrest for first degree criminal trespassing.  He was housed in the Norfolk City Jail and later transferred to the Madison County Jail.
