Police were called to 711 Collins for a suspicious man behind the resident’s apartment.  Upon the Officer’s arrival, he found a man who was cooling down after an argument with his girlfriend.  The man identified himself as Marcus Cagle and the Officer asked him to wait in police car as he conducted his investigation.

The man resisted refusing to place his feet in the police car.  He grabbed the Officer in a bear hug and the two men fell to ground.  A struggle ensued and the man was able to escape the Officer’s hold and took off running.  The Officer deployed his Taser striking him on leg, but the suspect removed one of the darts and a foot pursuit ensued.  The man was able to jump a fence and flee into the Buccaneer Apartments.

Officers searched for the man, but were unsuccessful in locating him.  Marcus Cagle (03/28/89) was found to be wanted for Probation Violation for Fraud-Illegal Use of Credit Cards and Motion to Revoke Probation for Possession of Marijuana. Both warrants had “No Bond” set.
