Some Sacramento County Sheriff's deputies could be excused if they thought last week that they had signed up for professional wrestling rather than law enforcement.
Crime reports released this week gave these accounts:
On Oct. 10 at about 3:30 a.m. in the 5100 block of Sitton Way, deputies responded to a fight call and found a female suspect walking away from the scene who refused several times to heed commands to stop. The suspect was caught and handcuffed, but then slipped her hands out of the restraints and proceeded to fight deputies.
She refused numerous requests to stop fighting, but when she tried to bite deputies, the Taser came out and the fighting stopped. A methamphetamine "pill" was found in her pocket, according to the summary.
Booked into jail was Azurneisha Riley, 19. Jail records show Riley still in jail on suspicion of battery against officers, resisting officers, drug possession and a failure to obey a commitment order. She is being held without bail.
On that same date at about 11:50 p.m. near Artesia Road and Elywn Avenue, deputies responding to a call of a prowler found a suspect sitting in a parked vehicle. The suspect failed to produce identification and when deputies tried to search him for weapons, he resisted.
Deputies had to use control holds to get the suspect into handcuffs and into a patrol car. He continued to refuse to identify himself, but deputies were able to establish he was Andres Ortiz, 24, the crime summary states.
Ortiz was booked into jail on suspicion of resisting arrest, the summary states.
On Oct. 6 at about 2 a.m. in the 8800 block of Liscarney Way, a deputy on patrol stopped a vehicle after the deputy observed it driving with no headlights on. A check showed the vehicle as stolen and a search found property stolen from another vehicle only hours earlier, the report states.
But when the vehicle's two occupants were placed in a patrol car, one of the suspects kicked out a window in an escape attempt and had to be subdued.
Arrested were Jeremiah Harvey, 19, and an unidentified 16-year-old juvenile, the report states. Harvey also was being held on a no-bail felony warrant from Shasta County, jail records show.
