Deputies injured trying to take man into custody, Orange Co. sheriff says
GARDNER WILL ALSO HAVE THE
LATEST MODEL RUNS FOR YOU.
>> BROKEN GLASS PIECES OF A
SHATTERED AC UNIT. JUST SOME OF
WHAT WAS LEFT BEHIND AFTER A
FIGHT BETWEEN OFFICERS AND THE
SUSPECT. DEPUTIES RESPONDED TO
A CALL IN ORANGE COUNTY FROM
NEIGHBORS WHO WERE SAYING THAT
A MAN WAS ACTING ODD AND
THREATENING. AND THEN THE
SHERIFF SAYS THAT MAN TURNED
ON THE DEPUTY'S WRAL'S. CARLY
HAYNES JOINS US NOW LIVE FROM
THE SCENE. CARLY NEIGHBORS SAY
THEY'RE SHOCKED. IT WENT THIS
FAR.
>> AND THOSE DEPUTIES WERE
SERIOUSLY INJURED. WE KNOW
TONIGHT AT LEAST 2 OF THEM ARE
OUT OF THE HOSPITAL, THOUGH.
ALL ARE EXPECTED TO MAKE A FULL
RECOVERY. SO GOOD NEWS THERE.
THE NEIGHBOR SAID THAT THE
SUSPECT HAD ONLY BEEN LIVING IN
THAT NEIGHBORHOOD FOR LESS THAN
2 WEEKS. THEY HAD SEEN HIM ACT
STRANGE BEFORE, BUT NOTHING
LIKE WHAT THEY SAW TODAY.
THE HELPERS BECAME THE HEARSE
AND NEIGHBORS ARE PICKING UP
THE PIECES.
>> WE NEVER HAD ANYTHING LIKE
THAT HAPPENING HERE. SO SOUNDS
LIKE THAT HAPPENING. DEFINITELY
SHOCKED. MOST OF US ONE RUIZ
SHARED VIDEO OF A MAN PULLING
AWAY HIS FAMILY'S GRILL THAT
QUOTE.
IT WAS A MORE ABOUT LIKE THE
COST OF THE GIRL WAS JUST, YOU
KNOW, IT'S BEEN AN HONOR.
>> FAMILY FOR A WILD ONE.
STOP ALONG A STRING OF CRIMES
IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD. THIS MAN
ACCUSED OF THROWING ROCKS
AGAINST HOMES AND DAMAGING AC
UNITS.
>> WHAT ORANGE COUNTY DEPUTIES
ARRIVED. THE SHERIFF SAID HE
TURNED ON LAW ENFORCEMENT.
>> AND HE IMMEDIATELY BEGAN
TO BITE THEM IN THE STANDS AND
TIMES, ALL OF THEM. THIS IS
THE AFTERMATH. 3 DEPUTIES
SERIOUSLY HURT. 53 YEAR-OLD
JORGE LUIS LOPEZ TO ROUND WAS
ARRESTED NOT WITHOUT CHALLENGE.
>> SHERIFF CHARLES BLACKWOOD
SAID HE WAS LIKELY UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF DRUGS SPECIFICALLY
MATH.
SHATTERED SECURITY AND DEPUTIES
STILL RECOVERING
>> AND LOPEZ, IRAN IS BEING
HELD WITHOUT BOND. HE'LL BE
MAKING HIS FIRST COURT
APPEARANCE TOMORROW AFTERNOON.
