BUCYRUS—An Attica man was arrested on Saturday afternoon when Bucyrus Police responded to a call about a male causing a disturbance.
Officers went to the residence, located in the 1400 block of South Sandusky Avenue, at 12:20 p.m. and encountered the man inside a vehicle.
“He appeared to be having some type of violent episode,” said Lt. Tom Walker of the Bucyrus Police Department.
According to Walker, officers, in concert with Crawford County Sheriff’s deputies, attempted to make contact with the man. After a short scuffle, the man was taken into custody.
James Sampson Jr., 39, Attica, Ohio, was arrested on a felony warrant out of Florida and is also being charged with resisting arrest and disorderly conduct. He was treated at Bucyrus Community Hospital then taken to the Crawford County Justice Center to be held on the new charges and to await extradition to Florida on the warrant.
