A Salina man resisted arrest by Salina Police Department officers after injuring a 52-year-old victim with the handle of an unknown gun.
At 10 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 30, SPD officers reported to a residence in the 400 block of South Ninth Street after a victim reported that 57-year-old Salinan Derrick Richardson had battered her and left a bleeding gash on her head.
The victim said the gunstock or handle of an unknown firearm had left the injury on her head.
According to SPD Capt. James Feldman, when officers arrived at the scene, they found Richardson in his vehicle outside of the residence.
"Officers attempted to take him into custody, but he did not initially comply," Feldman said. "He went into the house, the officers followed him and ended up taking him into custody after a short struggle."
SPD officers arrested Richardson and requested charges for aggravated domestic battery, domestic battery and interference with law enforcement officers.
