The RNC had to taser a man who decided that he wanted to fight rather than go quietly after an incident in St. John’s.
Police were responding to an assault in the area of St. Clare Avenue at about 1:30 a.m. but the 27-year-old suspect put up a fight.
He now faces the original assault charge plus assaulting two officers, resisting arrest and breaching a court order. He was held for court today.
The officers sustained minor injuries.
