Assault and Battery on a Police Officer and Related Charges to be Dismissed Against Local Man

The prosecution alleged that on May 28, 2015 at 11:20 a.m. Lowell, Massachusetts police officers responded to a fight near the John Street garage. The officers observed a male, our client, strike another male in the face with his fist. As the officers approached to intervene the man started yelling “fuck the police”. This man’s angry and aggressive behavior escalated and he started punching and kicking the officers. One of the officers was transported to the hospital for treatment for injuries inflicted by the accused. The man was charged with two counts of assault and battery on a police officer, G.L. c. 265 Section 13D, resisting arrest, G.L. c. 268 Section 32B and disorderly conduct, G.L. c. 272 Section 53. Today, Attorney Neyman was able to get the case continued without a finding. If the defendant remains free from criminal legal trouble for a period of time the charges will be dismissed.
