Deputies met with Cottonwood Police Officers at the Fry’s store in Cottonwood where they had 2 females detained, including the 16-year-old reported runaway. Both became disruptive and the runaway began resisting her detention. While attempting to handcuff the runaway, an initially uninvolved 14-year-old female came running towards deputies with a large rock in her hand. Deputies stopped her movement and placed her under arrest after she kicked a deputy while being restrained.

    During the arrest of the assaultive female, a male juvenile (age not currently available) standing nearby threw a rock at a YCSO deputy striking him on the shoulder. The male then ran but was caught by Cottonwood Police Officers after a brief chase.

    While the investigation continued in the Fry’s parking lot, the reported runaway and assaultive female had been placed in separate sheriff’s vehicles. Both were observed kicking the inside of their respective vehicles, removing seatbelts, and attempting to slip out of handcuffs. Each was restrained to avoid further escape.

    A total of 4 juveniles were arrested and booked at the Prescott Juvenile Detention Center on charges including Resisting Arrest, and Aggravated Assault on a Police Officer (for 2 of the 4). Cottonwood Police Officers placed additional charges on the male juvenile following the assault on a deputy and foot chase.

    Deputies are developing information from follow-up regarding ‘crash pads’ in the area that house runaways.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
