Carson City Sheriff's arrest log: Man violates TPO, then resists arrest

A 30 year-old Carson City man was arrested Saturday morning at 8:50 a.m. in the 2000 block of West College Parkway for misdemeanor violation of a temporary protection order (TPO) and resisting an officer, a Carson City Sheriff's deputy reported.

According to the arrest report, a Sheriff's deputy was dispatched to a residence on Bryan Circle for a reported TPO violation. The TPO was confirmed active by dispatch and served Jan. 30 by a deputy.

The TPO holder said the restraining order was granted because her ex-spouse had become obsessed with her daughter, who is not his.

According to the holder, her ex-husband had made previous comments about wanting to be with and have sex with her daughter, the report said.

As such, the TPO holder sought out the restraining order against him.

She reported to deputies that on the day her ex was served, he reportedly showed up at the daughter's former workplace and began yelling for her from outside of the business.

She further reported that the suspect had arrived at her daughter's school and began asking other students to have her come out to see him, the report said.

Then at about 3 a.m. Saturday morning, the TPO holder stated that her telephone rang from an unknown out-of-state number, and the suspect was on the other end of the line.

The suspect reportedly told the holder that he wanted to live with her daughter and wanted the mother to get out of the way, the TPO holder reported.

On the phone, the suspect admitted to wanting the daughter sexually and would wait until she became a legal adult, the holder stated in the report.

The TPO holder expressed to deputies that she and her daughter are scared, constantly keeping an eye out for the suspect.

During the conversation with deputies, the holder's phone received a text from the same number that called her earlier in the morning, the report said.

The text read, "Come over please, I want to talk."

After receiving a written statement from the TPO holder, deputies then made their way to the suspect's residence off W. College Pkwy.

The male who answered from inside the residence matched the booking photo they had on file for the suspect. He allowed officers to talk with him inside, the report said, appearing very nervous on initial contact.

The suspect immediately denied talking with the TPO holder or being in love with her daughter when queried by deputies.

However, he later admitted to having talked with the holder 2-3 days earlier about their children together. Deputies informed the suspect that he was not allowed to contact the TPO holder, his ex-wife.

The suspect claimed that he didn't think the TPO was any good, and handed the ripped up paperwork over to officers, the report said.

Deputies informed the suspect that the TPO was, in fact, valid and he was not allowed to have any contact with its holder.

The suspect opened his phone when requested by deputies and showed them his call log. The only call on it belonged to an out-of-state number appearing similar the one that had called the TPO holder early in the morning, the report said.

A second cell phone was found in plain view of officers inside the apartment, and the number belonging to that one matched the number that had called and texted the TPO holder, the report said.

The suspect became uncooperative and was detained in handcuffs. But he refused to put on his shoes and began yelling, the report said.

He also attempted to pull away from deputies and not walk with them. One deputies placed the suspect's bound hands in a gooseneck and started to walk him backward.

But the suspect tried to free his hands from the cuffs, the report said, and was then taken to the ground for officer safety.

He was held down until the cuffs were adjusted around the wrists. Then the suspect was placed in the patrol unit, where he was further uncooperative and not allowing himself to be seat-belted by the offficer.

He began to bang his head on the cage and refused any commands given by deputies.

In spite of the suspect's behavior, he was successfully taken into custody and transported to the Carson City Jail for booking.

Bail: $1,549.
