Arlington Man Removed From His House Kicking: Police

ARLINGTON, VA -- An Arlington man was removed from his home kicking by police officers who accuse him of being drunk and abusive of a child.

Police were called to the 3600 block of 12th Street S at around 8:53 p.m. on Dec. 9 to a report of a "highly intoxicated male with a child allegedly stumbling in the road," according to a report from the Arlington County Police Department.

"The male suspect disobeyed lawful commands to open the door," the report states. "Officers forced entry to the residence and took the suspect into custody. While attempting to escort the suspect out of the residence, he actively resisted and refused to walk. As the officers carried him out, he kicked one officer multiple time."

Police charged 45-year-old Stuart Behrens with abuse and neglect of a child, assault on police, and obstruction of justice.
