COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – An east side motel in Coldwater where a meth raid happened a month ago was the scene of another Coldwater City Police drug bust this past weekend. According to police, an officer was assaulted during the incident Saturday at the Coldwater Inn and Suites, the former Super 8 Motel on Orleans Boulevard.
33-year old Nichole Combs of Coldwater was arrested around 6:00 a.m. not long after 911 received a call from a customer at the motel that he heard someone screaming in another room. When police showed up at the room in question, there was no response so they pushed in the door and said they discovered Combs in the bathroom. Officers also reported that Combs said she had been attacked in the room by a man who had fled before police arrived.
Police said she twice scuffled with officers as they attempted to take her into custody, resulting in two counts of resisting and obstructing. Combs was also arraigned yesterday on one count of possession of methamphetamine.
Officers said suspected meth was seized as evidence from the room and will be tested with additional charges possible. No injuries were reported and Combs is due back in District Court for a probable cause hearing December 21, 2017. She’s being held on a $35,000 cash or surety bond.
