Tim Chell, Glassboro's municipal prosecutor, said the facts will be hashed out in court.

"We'll have to have a trial and hear all the facts before anyone should prejudge this case," Chell said. "If all the facts are that Taco Bell wanted the gentleman removed from the premises and he would not leave when asked to leave, it would be the state's position that he's guilty of loitering.

"And it's also the state's position that when you're lawfully arrested, you have to give your name to a police officer," Chell said.

He said he also hopes to subpoena Taco Bell employees on duty that night to testify.
