Harassment

Deputy Shelby and Deputy Gatlin were dispatched to 2500 Gold Road in reference to John House harassing his neighbors. House had active arrest warrants out of Williamson County.

He turned and ran back into the residence. They ran behind him and House hid behind the front door and refused to any of their commands.

He forcefully pulled away when Deputy Gatlin attempted to arrest him. A taser was deployed, striking House in the back area. The first tase wasn’t effective and Deputy Gatlin used minimal force to take House to the ground. He continued to resist arrest and was tased the second time.
