“I am not a criminal. “I have never been arrested,” he wrote in a text message.

According to Police Chief Stephen Lynch, officers received calls Monday night reporting an erratic driver.

Police found the Lexus SUV after 9 p.m. stopped on Hill Road, and when officers approached the car, allegedly driven by Nunez, the vehicle drove away, according to a police report.

Nunez allegedly drove 51 miles per hour in a 25 mile per hour zone, failed to stop at a stop sign, swerved into the opposite lane and nearly ran off the road at different times during the chase, authorities said.

Eventually, Nunez stopped on Wallum Lake Road and officers approached the car with their guns drawn, the report said.

Body camera video footage shows Nunez muttering, “What’s wrong?” as the officers approach her. Officers wrote that they “detected the overwhelming odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from his breath.” According to the police report and police body camera footage released Thursday, she repeatedly told officers that she is the owner of La Casa del Conjuroand argued with them about why he didn’t stop immediately.

Officers attempted to perform field sobriety tests, but the video shows Nunez not following instructions and laughing at the officers. At one point he told police, “You’re boring me,” and accused them of trying to “save face” by administering the tests, according to the report.

Police said he later refused to take a breathalyzer test, but told officers he drank three cocktails that night. She was later handcuffed to a bed at the police station after she refused to stop “aggressively banging on the cell door and screaming,” police wrote.

In a series of text messages sent to the Globe, Nunez claimed that he passed a field sobriety test and that police did not ask him to take a breathalyzer.

He claimed that the police and others are “trying to put me out of business.”

“I am terrified by this PD. “I ran a stop sign and then pulled over to the shoulder as they approached,” he wrote. “I remember feeling panic and terror, speeding up and then stopping. “I knew they would harass me and possibly take me somewhere to kill me.”

Lynch said Burrillville officers are sometimes called to The Conjuring House, where Nunez also lives, because of traffic caused by onlookers. On Saturday night, Lynch said, Nunez called police to report seeing former employees near the woods. Police responded but found no one there, Lynch said.

Over the summer, officers also went to The Conjuring House twice with a health care provider to check on Nunez, who was taken to a hospital on one of those occasions, he said.

Last month, Núñez said The diary of Providence The hospital stay was orchestrated by former employees in an attempt to take control of the house.

In a series of texts with Globo, Núñez referred to several medical facilities but did not want to give details. “Just because they put me in facilities because I complain about crimes against me and my legitimate business does not mean that I have psychiatric problems,” Núñez wrote.

DUI charges continue Other Conjuring House-related controversies in recent months. The 18th-century farmhouse was the inspiration for the 2013 film “The Conjuring,” about the ghosts that plagued the Perron family there in the 1970s. Visitors come from all over the world to tour the property and some even spend the night.

Former employees have said Nunez owes them money, including one who said he was fired after Nunez accused him of stealing money from the business, an accusation she says was based on a tip from the ghost of a former owner.

Guests have also complained that they were asked to leave based on information that she seemed to indicate was of spirits. Scott Kitlarz told the Globe that he and his wife paid $1,089 to spend the night at the house on October 21. The Iowa couple left just hours after Nunez asked them if they were content creators and accused them of not having “good intentions,” adding, “I can feel your energy,” according to an audio recording Kitlarz provided to the Globe. He told the Globe that she seemed to indicate that spirits had informed her about the Kitlarz.

He said they brought cameras and microphones to try to capture anything otherworldly, but they are not content creators. The spell house website It states that guests can bring “ghost hunting equipment,” but content creators must inform staff before arriving. Kitlarz asked for a refund, to which Nunez agreed, but said that as of Wednesday he had not received any of the $1,089 he and his wife had paid.

When asked about Kitlarz’s experience, Nunez texted that “I was quickly alerted to his intentions so I acted quickly.”

“No one who intends to harm me or my business will receive a refund,” he said. “I will not reveal my sources who seek to protect me and TCH.”

Jason Hawes, the star of the Rhode Island-based SyFy television show “Ghost Hunters,” also accused Nunez of harassing him and said he is concerned about the safety of guests staying there.

Amid the controversies, “The Conjuring House” remained open to visitors, although Lynch last week opted not to immediately approve the entertainment license for the property, citing “inappropriate” attachments in his application. However, Nunez can still reapply before his current license expires in November, Lynch said.

When asked about the license, Nunez said he “will pursue all options to run my legitimate business.”

“Burrillville will need a compelling reason to reject it,” he said in a text message.
