Man accused of trying to disarm police
A 36-year-old man is accused of trying to disarm a Butler police officer inside the Marathon gas station Saturday afternoon.
It took five officers to arrest the 6-foot, 4-inch tall and 240-pound suspect after two Taser stun guns failed to incapacitate him, police said. No one was injured.
The defendant, Matthew R. Fleeger of Butler, is in the Butler County Prison on $50,000 bail. He faces felony assault and other charges.
