A man in Washington accused of vehicle burglary reportedly struggled during his arrest which allegedly caused the deputy to break his leg.

On November 6, a man in Yakima County, Washington, saw an unknown male trying to force their way into his parked vehicle. He watched as the suspect, who was unsuccessful in the purported car burglary, took off in the direction of a nearby orchard. The alleged victim notified the authorities to report the situation, and deputies with the Yakima County Sheriff’s Office set out to investigate.

When they arrived, the deputies talked to the man who made the report. He informed them that there were portable toilets close by, and he believed the suspect was hiding near them. After arriving at the spot with the Porta-johns, a deputy saw a man come out of the structure. It was believed that he was the person the caller reported. Law enforcement decided to arrest him, and when a deputy tried to handcuff him, the man reportedly started to put up a fight.
