Suspect takes out anger on cruiser

A man arrested by Bismarck Police on Saturday night caused about $1,500 in damage to a police car.

Police responded to the Bismarck Motor Hotel on Saturday, where they encountered the 34-year-old man. He had reportedly been in an argument with another man and that man's girlfriend, and had thrown a glass bottle at the man, who suffered cuts. According to the police report, the 34-year-old man became combative upon his arrest, flailing around and kicking. He kicked the back passenger door area of the police car, causing the damage.

Sgt. Steve Kenner said the man was awaiting charges of simple assault, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and criminal mischief.
