On November 16, 2024, officers responded to an anonymous 911 call for a verbal disturbance at a Florida residence. They arrived to find a man holding a machete on the front porch who refused over thirty commands to release the weapon. After making threats against officers and their families, a Taser was deployed. The subject was subsequently charged with assault, threatening an officer, resisting without violence, and criminal mischief. He received a sentence of 83 days.
