Petty Theft, Resisting Arrest
On Friday, June 23 at 8:49 p.m., officers attempted to conduct a traffic stop on a suspect who committed multiple traffic violations on a bicycle.
The suspect did not immediately comply with the officers’ orders, though when he left the bicycle, he aggressively approached officers with a pool cue, according to police. Officers then deployed a TASER, immobilizing the suspect and taking him into custody.
After investigation, police learned that the suspect had stolen the bicycle moments before he was stopped by police.
