According to the Sallisaw Police Department report filed with the charges, Blount was seen by officers at the hospital in Sallisaw and was identified as having a warrant for his arrest. When the officer tried to stop Blount, he ran south, the report indicates
The officer then used his Taser when Blount refused the order to stop. The charge hit Blount in the back. Blount, who was laying on the ground at that time, was ordered to turn over and refused, and was Tasered again. Blount then told the officer, “he had given up,” and was handcuffed and arrested.
