On the above date and time I, along with several other officers, responded to the area of Trilluim Trl in reference to a domestic altercation which involving a black male and a white female as they were walking down the roadway. Several callers told dispatch that they had witnessed the male subject strike the female in the face and another caller stated that observed the male push the female. The male was described as a black male with long dreads, American flag shirt (turned out to be just a colorful shirt) with blue-jean shorts walking back in the direction of hwy 27.
While in rout, dispatch advised that the subjects were still being physical with one another so I activated my blue lights and siren as I continued to respond. Upon arrival, I made contact with male as described above. After exiting my patrol vehicle I asked the male to walk to the front of my vehicle. The male (later identified as Romaio Datis) became verbally abusive and refused to answer any of my questions. He continued to say I had no right to stop him nor asked for his name. I attempted to explain to him the reason for the stop, but he didn’t care. He continued to ignore my questions and talk over me. At this time, he was placed in cuffs and placed in the back seat of officer Forrister’s patrol vehicle. After speaking with several witnesses, I was told they wanted to remain anonymous, but one stated that they saw the male hit the female in the face and the other stated that observed him push her.
Short time later, officer Stanfield went to Mr. Datis house and located the female involved. No marks were observed on her person ans she stated that he did not hit her at all. Given the lack of physical evidence of physical altercation, Mr Datis were arrest and charged with disorderly conduct. Due to his medical history, he was taken to Floyd Hospital and cleared before being transported to jail by officer Stanfield. Both body and car camera was activated during this arrest.
