Police reports indicate Slaby became combative and uncooperative with the officers as they showed up at his house to investigate the initial disturbance call that came from a woman at the residence. When the first squad car arrived, Slaby met the officer outside his house and he appeared to be under the influence of alcohol, according to police.

Eventually, a physical confrontation ensued outside Slaby's home, prompting the first Shorewood officer on the scene to call for emergency assistance, police reports indicate.
