Police Tase Violent Man under Santa Monica Pier



From Santa Monica Close Up:

" A dramatic turn of events unfolded at Santa Monica Pier on the morning of Thursday, November 23, 2023. Santa Monica Police Officers arrested a man following a reported assault and disruptive behavior. The suspect, initially taken to a hospital after a confrontation with law enforcement, has since been cleared for booking and is now in police custody.

Eyewitnesses at the scene described the suspect as unruly, leading to a physical altercation with another individual at the pier. When police attempted to intervene, the suspect reportedly resisted arrest. This resistance led to an officer deploying a taser, causing the suspect to fall and hit his head.

Santa Monica Harbor Patrol Officers and Firefighters were promptly on the scene. After receiving initial treatment by firefighters, the suspect was transported to a local hospital. Following medical clearance, he was booked into the local jail, facing charges of battery."
