Pretrial Probation for Man Charged With Four Counts of Assault and Battery on a Police Officer
In July of 2021, officers from a large city outside of Boston responded to a call for a wellness check. When they got to the location they were told by the defendant’s mother that he was undergoing a mental health episode. The officers confronted the man to try to help. The man lunged at one of the officer’s holsters trying to get his gun. The other officers tried to subdue the defendant. He responded by hitting all four of the officers at the home. He was charged with assault and battery on a police officer prohibited by G.L. c. 265 section 13D. Today was the arraignment date. We were able to negotiate pretrial probation under G.L. c. 276 section 87, unsupervised. All charges will be dismissed soon.
