N�`WMAI•i was obviously intoxic,ated.lTis dothes were in disarray and the zipper on his pants was down. It appeared as though he had not bathed_ Iie smelled strongly of alcoholic beveryges. His speech was extremely slurred and slow. His speech at times was incoherent. fTis eyes were bloodshot and watery. At flmes it appeared that he was having difficuity keeping his eyes open, I obsetved several tattoos on his azms. One of the tattoos contained the initials FTW, which I later learned stands for fuck the world and is associated with biker gang5. E�Tis mood changed many times throughout my contact with him. There was a I.75 liter bottle of vodka that was three-quartezs empty, pETEgS later informed aee that the bottle of vodka was fuil earlier today and that NEWMAN �ad consumed aii of the vodka, r�EWMAN went back aad forth, saying that he would go to Detox, ant1 then changed his mind. At one point he even put his shoes on. fihen NEWMA2d�s mood changed and cal�led PETF.RS a cunt I had PETERS exit the aPamnent as NEWMAN seemed to be acting tough and putfing on a show when PETERS was presen� PETERS stated that NEWMAN used to be a drug addict astd lus drug of ohoice was heroin.

F�rs threats seemed real and he was started to puffiris chest out. F�is large muscle masses appeared to lse twitching. It appeared to me as though he was prepazin� to fight with us. He then stood up with a clenched fist. http:ficrmdom IficrliCr.nsf/PrintViewlOEB8ADC43857AF' 10862 56PD400504A01?OpenDoc... 3/8/2006 MRR-08-2006 19�27 96� P.04 MAR-08-2006 WED 07�02 PM � FRX N0, P, 05 � - Page 2 of 5 D�'.5 3S Fearing for the sa€ety of a11 parties present, T advised riEWMAN that he was uader azrest.

Off'icer Eastrnan and T gave Irim loud verbal comma.nds to not figist with us. I advised F�iJI3'TF.R to st�p back so that he was not in the path of the taser. Iv�WMAN stood up and I advised him to tum around and bring his hands behind lus bacl:. T ther� removed the carisidge of the XZb �ser and appiied pressure to his back with the taser in a drive stnn technique. At no rime did T activate the taser. I made con#act to his hack with tha taser as a precautionary tacric in case he �ied to assault us wlvle he was being handcuffed Officer Eastinan then handcuffed NBWMAN. I then secured the taser. I started completing a pat search of NEWMAN, checldng him for weapons. I cou(d feet }ris muscles tightea up and he begsai to thrash and try and pull away &om me. Officer Eas�yn and I then guided NEWMAN into a nearbq wall, resiraining him briefly. NEWNQAN then began to fight our efforts to restrain him. He started to push of£ the wall and thrash around � cer Eastrnan had a hold of his right arm and T used a modified arm bar and I�WMAN was brought to the floor. ARer restraining NEWMAN to the floor, he calme�i down and was then secured in the rear af my squad. T then was able to get a preliminazy breath test sample from NEWMAN. He registered a.296. Officer Eastman collected the necessary information fcom HUNT�:R and PETETiS_ PETERS was later mail� a domesric violeace pamph4et. We then transported N]EWNLAN to the Washington County 7ail. While on the way to the jail, T advised NEWMAN that he was bein� charged with Gross Misderneanor Obsuucting T.egal Process. At one point during the short drive to the jaiI, NEWMAN had fallen across the seat and was not abte to sit baak up. Cancerned far possible po�i6onal asphyatiation and NEWMAN's yelling, I advised Eastman to stop the squad so that T couid get NEWMAN into an uprighi position. I opened the squad door and assisted NEWMr1N to a sitting position. NEWMAN then t�ied to pusfi his way out of the squad. I pushed sgainsc his chest lighdy and advised him to put lus feet back into the squad so I could shut the door. We then continued to the jaiI. A the jail, N�WMAN was escorted inm the jail and was walking under his own power. Officer Eastman and I each had a huld of one nf his arms to guide him into the jail. Once in the intake azea af the jail, ✓staff began the property inventory. I advised the jail staff of his charges and the PBT result_ A short fime later T was advised rhat 7ai1 Sergeant Arcand was refusing the inmate due to Ius intoxication. At no time was Sgt Arcand present with the inmate. The jai! inst�ucte:d me to tra�sport the imnate to a Detox center. Officer Fzstmaa and I then trapspor�ed NEyVI�� to Dakota County Detox Center. While at the way to Detwc, NEWIvIAN stated that he vvas going to kill me. At this point, Of�cer Eastrnan activated the squad video caznera to reeord NE'UVI:'biAN's threats. NEWMAN comimied to be very talkative. Tie called me a cock sucker several times arAd then requested I give him some cigarettes. �Tis moods co�nued to change. After receiving the first threat against my life I advised NEVIiMAN not to thzeaten me. At 10605 on the squad video tape, NEW1vL4N was recorded making a second threat to my life. He stated, "Come on mother fucker, Pll kill pou.". We aaived at T�etox and turned him over ta the Detox stsff. Staff inember Ott informed OPFicer Bastman that when NEWMAN was in Detox a couple of days ago, P�TEWMAN had stated that he was going to get explosives, a truck, and blow up a building containing "niggers". We advised Ott that he should report the incident to the Tiastings Police Depactment since the oi#'ense occurred in their city.
