Man assaults mother, police officers

A Renton man was arrested for assault and malicious mischief Sept. 1.

The man’s mother returned home to her apartment on Benson Road and smelled cigarette smoke. The 52-year-old mother was upset and found that her 31-year-old son had left the stove on after using it to light a cigarette and then smoked in the apartment, which was against her rules. She found the son minutes later smoking and drinking a bottle of Mad Dog 20/20. The man pushed his mother against the wall several times, ripped off her shirt and threw a picture causing it to shatter, before leaving the apartment.

Police caught up with the man at the 76 station on Puget Drive. At that point, the man fought with an officer, and the two exchanged several punches and elbows during the exchange. The officer suffered a minor injury to his wrist during the struggle. The man refused treatment on the scene.

While handcuffed, the man continued to yell obscenities at officers and tried to ram them with his shoulders. He repeatedly slammed his head against the partition in the police car.

The man was arrested and is under investigation for felony assault, domestic assault and malicious mischief.
