Brian Wade Osborne, 49, of Solomons
Brian Wade Osborne, 49, of Solomons, was charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct after Calvert County sheriff’s deputies responded three times to complaints of loud music, screaming, threats and banging at an apartment building.
Deputies with the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office were first called to Solomons Island Road in Solomons at about 8:59 p.m. on July 4, 2026, for a report of a disorderly man. An adult female victim told deputies that her neighbor, identified as Osborne, “was threatening people, was intoxicated, and acting belligerent,” according to the officer’s account.
A corporal located Osborne after he had walked away from the building. Osborne agreed to keep the noise down, and deputies left the area.
At about 9:31 p.m., the adult female victim contacted authorities again and reported that after deputies left, Osborne “started screaming and playing loud music again.” When the corporal returned, the music could reportedly be heard from the parking lot.
Osborne told the corporal that his music “may have been too loud” and agreed to lower the volume. The corporal warned him that he would be arrested if deputies had to return again.
At approximately 12:39 a.m. on July 5, 2026, the adult female victim called for a third time, stating that she “needed help.” She reported that Osborne was banging on the walls and ceiling between the apartments and was “screaming and threatening.”
The arresting deputy said a loud banging sound was immediately audible upon arrival and could be heard before the deputy got out of the patrol vehicle. As the deputy approached the apartment, Osborne opened his door.
Osborne told the deputy that he was knocking on the walls “because everyone else was doing it to him.” The deputy then placed Osborne under arrest, citing the repeated calls and the loud, disruptive noises reported throughout the night. Osborne was transported to the Calvert County Detention Center without incident. The deputy noted that a body-worn camera was activated during the encounter.
The charge alleges that Osborne willfully acted in a disorderly manner that disturbed the public peace. Disorderly conduct is a misdemeanor carrying a possible penalty of up to 60 days in jail, a fine of up to $500, or both.
Osborne appeared before a judicial officer on July 5, 2026, and waived an attorney for that initial appearance. He was released on his own recognizance without having to post bail. His release conditions require him to avoid criminal activity and appear in court when directed.
