A female police officer sustained a head and arm injury while placing a 22-year-old female under arrest on assault charges on Tuesday morning. The officer was taken to a local hospital to be treated for her injuries.
The Incident
On Tuesday, March 29 two Worcester police officers responded to a domestic incident at the Quality Inn located at 50 Oriol Drive.
During the investigation, police learned that a 22-year-old female, of Worcester, engaged in a physical altercation with a 20-year-old female victim. The victim was punched in the face during the fight. She was evaluated and transported to a local hospital to be treated for her injuries.
While the officers attempted to place the 22-year-old female under arrest, she resisted by kicking and punching the officers, ignoring all commands to stop.
The female proceeded to push the female officer's head into a wall resulting in the officer suffering from a head and arm injury.
The 22-year-old female was charged with two counts of assault and battery, resisting arrest and assault and battery on a Police Officer.
Arrestee's Name Not Released
The arrestee's identity will be withheld due to the comprehensive domestic violence law that the Massachusetts state legislature passed in early August of 2014. The law shields the names of people who are arrested and charged with domestic violence.
