A man who was arrested last week for Public Intoxication after harassing two female students outside A&M Consolidated High School on August 18th, was arrested again. 36-year-old Bob Esquivel was picked up again by College Station Police on Tuesday. Reports say Esquivel approached a home in the 1200 block of Carolina Street around 10:30pm and tried to talk his way into the residence. He reportedly asked the residents if they liked cookies and offered to conduct bible study with them. He smelled of alcohol and had trouble walking. He was booked into the Brazos County Jail for Public Intoxication and was again released on a Personal Recognizance Bond of $300, the same as last week. This was Esquivel’s 27th booking into the jail and his 10th arrest for Public Intoxication. He also has numerous arrests for criminal trespass, as well as assault of EMS personnel and possession of a controlled substance. *This is his booking photo from last week.
