Police responded at 9:20 p.m. to a call reporting a suspicious man yelling at the address and possibly on drugs. The first officer on the scene spotted David Ingle running down the street and saw him fall to the ground screaming. When a second officer arrived, they attempted to arrest him due to his erratic behavior. Ingle resisted and both officers deployed their stun guns. Ingle was struck multiple times with probes from the stun guns but continued to resist. One of the officers was rendered temporarily unable to assist the other officer due to an injury.
