                                 THE COP SHOP

Man fights friend, officers

A witness called police about 2:a.m. Wednesday to report that she was in the 300 block of West University Drive watching two men fighting behind a Chevron Station. She said the men were in a black pickup truck. They would sit in the truck a while, begin fighting, get out and assault each other and then get back into the truck. Then they would begin fighting again, exit the truck and assault each other again. While she was talking to dispatchers she said that one of the men had just kicked the other man in the head. Then he got in the truck and drove away.
Arriving officers found the truck and its driver. Paramedics took the injured man to a hospital emergency room for treatment. The driver of the truck then began fighting with the officers, according to the report. He was charged with driving while intoxicated and resisting arrest.
