The third time he told him he was going outside and would answer any further questions out there. Due to Gates yelling and the acoustics in the house making it worse he couldn't communicate with the ECC inside, so he went outside. He warned Gates twice that his behavior was out of hand before he was arrested. He had the handcuffs removed from behind his back and handcuffed him in front because they were hurting him. He also went in and got his cane for him to walk with. He then asked him if he would like them to secure his front door. Interestingly enough he told the officer that the door was unsecurable because of a previous break in attempt. A maintenance man from Harvard showed up that Gates was familiar with so the officer asked if he would be comfortable with that man securing his door. Gates agreed to this. Gates then requested that he be transported to the station in a police cruiser.
