Police: Man Who Injured Irvington Officers Tasered
The Main Street resident became combative and spit at police officers, according to officials.
An Irvington man was tasered after he became combative after police were called to his Main Street home on October 13, according to the Police Department.
Police received a 2:04 p.m. call reporting a dispute among family members that Sunday and reported a man at the home "was tasered and taken into custody based on his non-compliance," according to Police Sgt. Michael Foley.
"He was fighting and spitting at the officers," Foley said.
The 25-year-old was taken to Westchester Medical Center for treatment, where he was served with an appearance ticket. He is formally charged with Obstruction of Governmental Administration, a misdemeanor.
Two police officers who responded to the home suffered "minor injuries," Foley said, but did not require medical attention.
