Police Blotter / Sandy Springs These are some, but not all, of the reports made to Sandy Springs police from May 15 through May 21. The following information was pulled from Sandy Springs police website and is presumed to be accurate.
LOS ANGELES MAN A R R E S T E D FO R R E S I S T I N G A R R E S T AT S A N DY S P R I N G S H OT E L Sandy Springs Police arrested a Los Angeles man on May 17 and charged him with obstruction-resisting an officer after he tried to escape an arrest at a local hotel. Daniel Egerton was charged with resisting an officer. His wife, Catherine Coo, was cited for disorderly conduct after she attempted to help her husband resist arrest. The incident occurred at about 4 a.m. when police were dispatched to the Hilton Suites Hotel at 6120 Peachtree-Dunwoody Road on a call of “trouble unknown.” According to a police report, the front desk personnel called police after receiving a call from guests requesting police. When officers arrived at the room, three individuals met them and said one of them invited another hotel guest, Daniel Egerton, to a party in their room. The friends later discovered Egerton had stolen the woman’s cellphone from the room. Egerton had returned the phone and told them it was a “misunderstanding.” The woman told police she did not want to prosecute Egerton but wanted him to leave the room. Egerton had refused to leave and police were asked to force him out. When police asked for Egerton’s name, it was discovered he was wanted in Miami, Fla., for grand theft. The officer told Egerton to place his hands behind his back. The officer also
grabbed Egerton’s arms to put them behind his back. Egerton began resisting and pulled both arms forward and then faced the officer in a defensive stance with his arms raised. The officer used physical force to try to detain Egerton and pushed him face down on the floor. Egerton managed to turn over and wrapped his arms around the officer’s head. The officer was able to break out of the hold but Egerton pushed the officer in the face as he attempted to get up and out from under the officer. The officer struck Egerton in the face with his elbow and pinned Egerton. “I told Egerton that he was under arrest and told him to stop resisting me,” the officer said in his report. Another officer began assisting. The first officer was able to get a handcuff on Egerton’s right arm. Then, Egerton’s wife, Coo, attempted to help Egerton escape, causing Egerton to again actively resist arrest by using his free arm to push himself up off the ground. An officer pointed a Taser at Egerton and the other officer pinned him against a wall and handcuffed both hands behind his back. Coo then ran at officers. She and her husband were “being extremely loud and boisterous,” according to the report. Coo was also placed under arrest. Another officer arrived and helped escort Egerton downstairs to a patrol car. While getting into the elevator, Egerton’s daughter, a juvenile, appeared and began to try to pull him out of the elevator. She was restrained while the elevator doors closed.
