Michigan man peed off St. Pete nightclub balcony, hitting women below, police say

ST. PETERSBURG — A 20-year-old Michigan man was arrested early Saturday after police said he peed off a St. Petersburg nightclub balcony, hitting two women sitting on a bench below.

Jack Estes Debrabander was arrested on two misdemeanor charges of simple battery.

The incident took place at about 12:30 a.m. at the 260 First nightclub, located at 260 First Ave. N. Debrabander was on the upper-level balcony of the club overlooking the sidewalk, police said, when he stepped to the railing and started urinating onto the sidewalk below.

Two women sitting on a bench below were “struck in the face, mouth, head, hands and arms with the defendant’s urine” as they looked up to see what was hitting them, an officer wrote in an arrest report.

Officers noted that Debrabander, whose address is listed East Lansing, Mich. in the arrest report, was intoxicated and uncooperative. He was booked at the Pinellas County jail and released at 6:47 a.m. Saturday after posting $1,000 bail.
