CORTEZ – A Cortez man who was cited or arrested seven times in January for trespassing at City Market and the Cortez Public Library was arrested last week for DUI.
Harry L. Bylilly, 46, is in custody at Montezuma County Detention Center on a $10,000 bond. He faces charges of driving under the influence, driving under restraint and failing to show proof of insurance.
Bylilly has an indefinite trespass notice from City Market dating to February 2014 and was issued a six-month trespass notice from the Cortez Public Library on Jan. 9.
About 10:30 p.m. Jan. 16, he was issued a summons for trespassing at the library. About 30 minutes later, the same officer jailed Bylilly after he trespassed at City Market.
Bylilly picked up two new charges Jan. 27. About 3 p.m., two officers saw Bylilly in the parking lot of City Market and cited him for trespassing. Three hours later, an officer was called to City Market on a trespass complaint for a different person but saw Bylilly at the entrance of the grocery store.
He was jailed after being medically cleared at Southwest Memorial Hospital because of intoxication. Two days later, Bylilly was cited for trespassing at the Cortez Public Library.
Bylilly appeared in Montezuma County Court briefly on Wednesday and is scheduled for a pretrial conference Tuesday.
