Carson City Sheriff's arrest log: Man booked for punching paramedics
A 27 year-old man was arrested early early Saturday for two counts of gross misdemeanor battery on a protected person after he allegedly struck two first-responders attending to him, a Carson City sheriff's deputy said.
According to the arrest report, Carson City Firefighter and Paramedics were dispatched to an establishment in the 100 block of E. Eighth Street for a report of a man down due to a possible mental or medical issue. A Carson City Sheriff's deputy was then called to the scene after the patient had become combative.
Witnesses and firefighter-paramedics reported to law enforcement that the man was lying on the ground upon the arrival of the rescue unit. During the medical assessment, the man punched both firefighter-paramedics in the throat and face areas.
When the deputy arrived on scene, he assisted firefighter-paramedics in gaining control of the man and detained him in handcuffs while obtaining witness statements.
The man, of Livermore, Calif., was subsequently arrested at 12:46 a.m. and transported to the Carson City Jail for booking. Bail: $5,000.
