Officers responded to a call on Granite Court that a man was trying to bash in the drivers window of a car while screaming racial remarks about the owner. When officers arrived to investigate, the man reportedly kept reaching into his pockets, which prompted the officer to draw his Taser gun on the man. He complied and did not have to be Tased, and was cited for disorderly conduct. “It doesn’t have to make sense when it’s four in the morning and you’re intoxicated,” Director of Public Safety Jim Lemcke said.
