Disorderly Conduct Arrest - 

At approximately 6:32 PM, Deputies, Albany EMS, Albany Fire, and Albany First Response, were dispatched to the Sugar River for a call of an incapacitated female tubing on the river.

Deputies arrived and located EMS tending to the female, who was conscious, alert and speaking with EMS. During this time, a male, later identified as Mario G. Pignato, 21 of Janesville, became disruptive and began swearing and yelling at Deputies, EMS staff and campground personnel. After numerous warnings, Mario continued this behavior and began punching an electrical box. At this time, Deputies placed Mario under arrest for Disorderly Conduct and transported him to the Green County Jail where he will be held pending posting of his bond or court.
