COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Two deputies were injured and a man was arrested after authorities responded to reports of a home burglary Monday.
NBC 4 reported with the BOTTOMLINE Monday.
A CPD officer and two Franklin County sheriff's deputies were called to the 4000 block of Hanover Hill Court on the city's Southeast Side on a report of a burglary in progress.
Upon their arrival, authorities located Marcus Maddox in the middle of Hanover Hill Court, a police report said.
The officer made verbal orders to gain control of Maddox, but he refused to obey and walked directly at the officer, authorities said.
