| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED By: ENTREKIN, GREGORY 1245 (AR15-13335) (15-32) did knowingly, actually and intentionally touch or strike DEPUTY GREGORY ENTREKIN, DEPUTY BRYAN HESSE, AND DEPUTY BRETT WHIRLE, LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS, against the will of thOSE personS while knowing that the said OFFICERS wERE engaged in a lawful performance of THEIR legal duties, in violation of Florida Statute 784.07(2). ON 010115 AT APPROXIMATELY 0140 HOURS, I WAS DISPATCHED TO 2182 SOUTH COLONIAL AVENUE IN REFERENCE TO A DOMESTIC DISTURBANCE. UPON ARRIVING, THIS DEPUTY, ALONG WITH DEPUTY B HESSE, MADE CONTACT WITH PARTIES ON SCENE WHO WERE STATING the DEFENDANT, LATER IDENTIFIED AS MR FRANK WOOD, WAS VERY EXTREMELY aggressive AND THROWING ITEMS THROUGHOUT THE RESIDENCE. AS DEPUTY B HESSE AND I APPROACHED the RESIDENCE, THE DEFENDANT EXITED the RESIDENCE ONTO THE FRONT PORCH and ASKED "WHY THE FUCK WE WERE THERE". WE INFORMED the DEFENDANT THAT WE WERE AT the RESIDENCE DUE TO A DOMESTIC DISTURBANCE. THE DEFENDANT CONTINUED TO GET AGITATED WITH DEPUTIES ON SCENE STATING WE NEEDED TO LEAVE. WE ADVISED the DEFENDANT WE JUST WANTED TO SPEAK WITH HIM IN REFERENCE TO WHAT WAS GOING ON, AT WHICH POINT HE INVITED US INTO the RESIDENCE. THE DEFENDANT ADVISED HE WAS ARGUING WITH HIS GIRLFRIEND AND that THERE WAS NO PHYSICAL FIGHTING. I ASKED the DEFENDANT WHY THE RESIDENCE WAS IN SUCH A DISARRAY AND HE STATED the DOGS HAD KNOCKED EVERYTHING OVER. WHILE DEPUTY B HESSE CONTINUED TO SPEAK WITH THE DEFENDANT, HE INSTRUCTED HIM TO SIT ON THE COUCH AND NOT TO MOVE DUE TO THE DEFENDANT CONTINUING TO BE VERBALLY AGGRESSIVE. AT that TIME, I STEPPED OUTSIDE TO SPEAK WITH THE DEFENDANT'S GIRLFRIEND WHO STATED THERE WAS NOTHING PHYSICAL BETWEEN HER AND THE DEFENDANT AND THAT SHE JUST WANTED TO GATHER SOME CLOTHES AND PERSONAL HYGIENE FOR HER, AS WELL AS HER DAUGHTER AND LEAVE FOR THE EVENING AND DID NOT WANT TO SPEAK WITH the DEFENDANT. I THEN REENTERED the RESIDENCE AND INFORMED the DEFENDANT THAT HIS GIRLFRIEND AND DAUGHTER would BE GRABBING SOME PERSONAL BELONGINGS AND LEAVING FOR the EVENING. THE DEFENDANT WENT TO APPROACH HIS GIRLFRIEND, AT which TIME HE WAS INSTRUCTED TO REMAIN SEATED and NOT TO GET BACK UP WHILE THEY WERE GATHERING THEIR BELONGINGS AND that THEY DID NOT WANT TO SPEAK WITH HIM. THE DEFENDANT CONTINUALLY YELLED AT HIS GIRLFRIEND TRYING TO ENGAGE IN CONVERSATION AND CONTINUED TO TRY AND GET UP. WHILE THE other PARTIES WERE IN THE BACK BEDROOM GATHERING THEIR BELONGINGS the DEFENDANT STATED HE WAS going TO PUT HIS CIGARETTE OUT IN THE KITCHEN. AS THE DEFENDANT ENTERED THE KITCHEN, I POSITIONED MYSELF IN THE HALLWAY WHICH COULD BE GAINED ACCESS FROM the KITCHEN SO the DEFENDANT WOULD NOT ENGAGE WITH THE OTHER PARTIES. AFTER the DEFENDANT EXTINGUISHED HIS CIGARETTE, HE ATTEMPTED TO WALK PAST ME. AT THAT TIME I REACHED OUT and GRABBED the DEFENDANT BY HIS RIGHT ARM IN ORDER TO REDIRECT HIM TO THE COUCH IN ORDER TO PREVENT ANY FURTHER ALTERCATION. BEFORE I could GIVE VERBAL COMMANDS, the DEFENDANT BECAME COMBATIVE, PULLING HIS ARM AWAY AND BEGAN TO SHOVE. I ATTEMPTED TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE DEFENDANT AND HE PULLED HIS ARM AWAY STRIKING THIS DEPUTY IN the RIGHT SIDE OF MY JAW. AT that TIME, DEPUTY B HESSE ATTEMPTED TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE DEFENDANT. AS DEPUTY B HESSE ATTEMPTED TO GAIN CONTROL, THE DEFENDANT BEGAN TO PUSH AND STRIKE AT DEPUTY B HESSE. I INSTRUCTED THE DEFENDANT TO STOP RESISTING, AT WHICH TIME HE BEGAN TO KICK. AT THAT TIME, I BEGAN TO DELIVER KNEE STRIKES TO the LOWER EXTREMITIES TO GAIN COMPLIANCE. AT THAT TIME, DEPUTY WHIRLE ALSO ASSISTED IN GAINING CONTROL OF THE DEFENDANT. the DEFENDANT WAS TAKEN DOWN TO the GROUND, AT WHICH TIME DEPUTY WHIRLE WAS KICKED IN the CHEST BY the DEFENDANT. DEPUTY B HESSE AT THAT TIME WAS ABLE TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE DEFENDANT'S LEFT ARM AND DEPUTY WHIRLE HAD CONTROL OF THE DEFENDANT'S LEGS. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE DEFENDANT'S RIGHT ARM, the DEFENDANT REFUSED TO COMPLY, AT which TIME I REMOVED MY TASER from ITS HOLSTER and REMOVED THE TASER CARTRIDGE AND APPLIED DRIVE STUN TO THE CENTER OF THE DEFENDANT'S BACK AND THE DEFENDANT COMPLIED WITH MY COMMANDS. AT that TIME, the DEFENDANT WAS HANDCUFFED BEHIND HIS BACK (DOUBLE LOCKED) and PLACED IN the REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. AFTER THE DEFENDANT WAS SECURED, SERGEANT FASS WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE SITUATION ON SCENE. AT THAT time, I TRANSPORTED the DEFENDANT TO the CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. the DEFENDANT WAS CHARGED WITH THREE COUNTS OF BATTERY ON A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, WHERE BOND WAS SET AT $5,000.00 PER COUNT FOR A TOTAL BOND OF $15,000.00.
