On 11/01/2008, I was riding in the Mounted Patrol squad car northbound on Hennepin Av. I saw Officer NELSON and Officer MCCAFFERTY in a doorway fighting with a male. It appeared that they were having difficuties with him and that the male was trying to get away from them.
I got out of the squad car and went over to assist them. AP was standing in the doorway. I saw AP throw up his elbows and almost struck Officer NELSON in the face. I told AP that if he did not stop resisting that I would use my taser on him. I took out the firing dart cartridge and just had the touch stun effective. AP kept swearing at us and kept trying to fight, throwing elbows and using his body strength to pull away.
Officer NELSON was able to bring AP down to the ground where AP continued to try to get up, twisting his body. I was leaning on his lower back area and he kept twisting his hips as if he was trying to get away from us. I again told AP to stop resisting or he would be tased. He said "*&^@#*&^@#*&^@#*&^@# that" and twisted again almost getting my weight off of him. At this point, I gave AP a touch stun with the taser to the lower back. He complied for a few seconds but again started twisting.
Officer NELSON and Officer MCCAFFERTY escorted him to the squad car. As they were approaching the squad car, AP pushed his way towards me. I was not able to push him back so I again touch stunned him, this time in the stomach area. They were then able to get AP into the rear of the squad.
While in the back of the squad AP was kicking so that they were not able to get the squad door closed. I told him to quit resisting, get in the car or I would tase him again. He kicked out at me, striking me in the left hand. I was able to get in the squad and gave him another touch stun as Officer MCCAFFERTY opened the other door and pulled him in. After the taser cycled through, AP stated "OK, OK" and he did not continue fighting.
I didn't know Adrian Peterson (AP) was a trouble-maker on Hennepin Ave.
